Thank 😊 you, Jan.
Gracias por la receta. Te mando un beso.
That looks like an amazing dessert. I could go for one right now. Happy countdown to 2026.
Those little servings are so cute. Have you ever had blended avocado and chocolate for a pudding? It's pretty darn good.
It looks tempting, like a way to close out this intense year. Thanks for share the recipe. Love it the chocolate.
Those look delicious!
The chocolates in the photo look wonderful.
Thanks for the festive recipe Jan.
May the new year be full of Peace, Love, Joy and Creativity!!
They look rich, luscious and yet kinda healthy!
Temptation evolves from here, love it ♥
They might be nice, Jan.
Happy New Year.
An indulgent yet elegantly simple dessert
A delightful morsel of a sweet treat, as a great aunt would have said, an elegant sufficiency.
Hello Jan,
They look and sound delicious!
I wish you all the best in 2026, a happy and healthy New Year.
Take care, have a great day!
These look delicious. Happy New Year!
The chocolate mousse looks delicious. We have a long-held custom to eat Toshikoshi soba, literally meaning “over the years buckwheat noodles”, on New Year’s Eve in Japan.
Wishing you a peaceful, prosperous year with lots of smiles.

What a delicious recipe, that would be perfect... *chuckle*
Sometimes I wish I´d like sweets. What genes my parents gave me? My Brother and his kids and wife like sweets, and Ingo does, too. I feel like an "alien"...
Feliz Ano Novo Jan. Grande abraço do Brasil.
That looks delightful!
Dear Jan!
Happy New Year! May all your dreams come true!
yummy!
Buoni ... Peccato che non vadano d'accordo con il mio bruciore di stomaco 😥
I don't drink at all, so mine would be without the alcohol.
OOOH that sounds good!
Looks delicious.
Looks good. I might try the vegan one :-D
Sure looks good!!
