Pumpkin Mousse--Holy Bad Word, That's Good.

Pumpkin mousse.  My family won't even try it.  But do you know what I say to THAT?!?! 
MORE FOR ME!!!
Ha ha and na na.  It's so good and it's all for me.  Actually, me and Genny.  Her likes it.  Her's nice. And she helped me make it.  I love my Genny girl.

That's my Genny...giving the ingredients bunny ears.   Genny...looking like an orphan, sitting on the counter, and giving food bunny ears.  Oh.  And she's barefoot.  My barefooted Genny girl.   It doesn't get much more "Genny" than that.  That's her in a nutshell.  We do everything together.  Sorta like a "My Buddy" doll...but a girl.  And, well...human.  "My buddy.  My buddy.  Wherever I go...SHEEEEE goes."

I actually found the original "My Buddy" commercial on YouTube.  If you have no idea what I'm talking about, then you are probably not in your 30's.  If you ARE in your 30's then I apologize for getting the song stuck in your head.  I've been singing it all afternoon...

ANYWAY...so back to the mousse.  My girlfriend Angie (HI ANGIE!!!!!) posted a pic of pumpkin mousse on Facebook and I knew I had to have the recipe.  GAWD it looked good.  So Angie posted the recipe for me...and that's when I got all hive-y and nervous-y.  I'm SERIOUSLY working on the whole "must not obsessively count calories" thing, but Angie's yummy yummy recipe had heavy cream in it.  The total cals for the entire recipe (not sure how many servings it makes...) is 1,541 with 88 grams of fat.  Knowing I was the only one who would probably eat this yummy delight sorta scared me.  1,541 calories?  Can't do it.  I wish I could.  A normal person COULD do it.  But I can't.  So I went on a quest to find a low cal/low fat recipe.

FOUND IT!  It's by Weight Watchers.  I have NO idea what the Weight Watchers points mean, but an entire cup of the recipe is only 1 point.  1 point sounds pretty good.  (I think...)
And I actually had all of the ingredients on hand!!  Hello, pumpkin mousse.  I've been waiting for you.

Weight Watchers Pumpkin Mousse

2 small Jell-o instant sugar free vanilla pudding mixes
2 cups skim milk
1/2 tsp pumpkin pie spice
15 oz can Libby's 100% Pure Pumpkin
8 oz fat free cool whip

1. Make pudding first with the 2 cups of skim milk.
2. Fold in the rest of the ingredients.
3. Serve!

The entire recipe (which would seriously serve about 8) is 615 calories.   That's about 76 calories per serving and 0 grams of fat.

Yum, yum, yum, yum, yum.  And no one likes it or will even try it but me and Genny.  YAAAAY!!!  Genny girl, we've got some eatin' to do.  Go grab a spoon!
