I was disappointed with this dessert. The chocolate mousse was grainy and the peanut butter cups were too sweet. I won't be making this again.

This dessert was a bit too sweet for my taste, but it was still good. I would recommend using a little less sugar next time.

I've made this dessert twice now, and it's always a success. It's easy to make and always comes out delicious. The only thing I would change is to use a little less sugar, as it can be a bit too sweet for my taste.

This chocolate dessert was a hit with my family! The combination of chocolate and peanut butter is always a winner, and the addition of the whipped cream and chocolate chips took it over the top.
