Delicious & Simple Chocolate Mousse (Dairy-free)

30 minutes
Calories: 530kcal

Ingredients

  • 1 can coconut milk (creamed, Note: 400g / 14.1 oz can usually yields about 250g / 8.8 oz of coconut cream)
  • 3 tablespoons cocoa powder (creamed, Note: 400g / 14.1 oz can usually yields about 250g / 8.8 oz of coconut cream)
  • 1/2 teaspoon cinnamon
  • 12 drops stevia extract (creamed, Note: 400g / 14.1 oz can usually yields about 250g / 8.8 oz of coconut cream)
  • flaked coconut (creamed, Note: 400g / 14.1 oz can usually yields about 250g / 8.8 oz of coconut cream)

Instructions

  • Place a can of coconut milk into the fridge overnight.
  • Dont shake the can before opening.
  • It should get very thick and the solids should separate from water.
  • If it doesnt, you need to try another brand.
  • Once thick, transfer to a bowl (without the water!).
  • The extracted cream will be used for the mousse.
  • To get a cup of creamed coconut milk, you'll need 1-2 cans coconut milk.
  • I recommend Thai Kitchen Organic or Native Forest or any other brand that works for you.
  • In my opinion, Aroy-D coconut milk is the best tasting coconut milk made from pure Thai coconuts and water.
  • There are NO additives and it's BPA-free! Unfortunately, it doesn't "cream" in the fridge like canned coconut milk does so it's not suitable for this recipe.
  • Instead, you can use Aroy-D to make Low-carb Cappuccino.
  • Whip in the raw cocoa powder - electric mixer will make the mousse really smooth and works best.
  • Add cinnamon and stevia.
  • Whip until smooth and creamy.
  • You can also top the mousse with some berries (blackberries are the lowest in carbs).
  • Enjoy! Tip: The mousse is best served after chilled for at lest an hour and then topped with toasted flaked coconut.
  • To toast the coconut, place it on a non-stick pan and let it brown while stirring (1-2 minutes).
