Rich Vegan Dark Chocolate Mousse (3 Ingredient)
Rich, creamy dark chocolate and coconut combine in a dessert worthy of celebrations.
Equipment
- double boiler or microwave
- kitchen mixer with whisk attachment
- Cutting board
- Sharp knife
Ingredients
- 1 3.5 ounce dark chocolate bar
- 4 cans full fat coconut milk or 1 can chickpeas
- 1 teaspoon liquid stevia (or 1 tablespoon maple syrup)
- 1/4 cup unsweetened, shredded coconut optional
Instructions
- Chop the chocolate into small pieces, put into a bowl and heat in the microwave at 10 second intervals, stirring each time. When chocolate is completely melted, set aside. (Alternatively, you can melt the chocolate in the top of a double boiler.)
- Open the cans and carefully remove the thick coconut cream (you should get about 16 ounces). In the kitchen mixer, with the whisk attachment, beat the coconut cream until stiff peaks form. Alternatively, use the liquid from a can of chickpeas instead.
- Put the coconut cream into a large bowl and use a spatula to fold in the melted chocolate. Add the liquid stevia or maple syrup.
- Top with shredded coconut, berries, or whipped coconut cream and serve.
Notes
This makes a very rich, dark chocolate mousse. If you want it to be sweeter, you could add some coconut sugar to the coconut cream before whipping it up. For a healthier version, you could also use aquafaba instead of the coconut milk. (Just use the liquid from one can of chickpeas and whisk in a mixer for about 9 minutes, until stiff peaks form.)
