3-Ingredient Vegan Aquafaba Chocolate Mousse (No Tofu)
Report
The coolest, creamiest and lightest Vegan Chocolate Mousse using just 3 ingredients. It's the perfect Valentine's Day dessert and you can use chickpea water (aka aquafaba) instead of tofu!

Ingredients
- 7 oz aquafaba
- 6.5 oz dairy free chocolate chips or bar
- 2 tablespoon maple syrup
Instructions
- Place chocolate chips in a small bowl and microwave in 10 seconds increments stirring each time until the chocolate melts.
- Meanwhile, add aquafaba to a large dry bowl. Using a hand mixer, start beating it on a low speed until foamy, about 1 minute.
- Slowly increase the speed to high and beat aquafaba in circular motion until stiff peaks. If you lift the mixer beaters, the whipped aquafaba will not fall off but will hold steady on a beater. This might take about 5 -10 minutes so don't worry if yours is taking a little longer.
- Slowly start adding melted chocolate to a whipped aquafaba, adding ⅓ of all chocolate at a time and using a rubber spatula to fold it in circular motion.
- Pour Maple syrup and fold again. Stop folding as soon as you combine all the ingredients. Less folding - more voluminous your vegan chocolate mousse will be.
- Distribute the mixture among 4 or 5 serving glasses and put in a refrigerator for about 2 hours to chill.
- Remove from the fridge and serve!
Notes
- Chocolate. You can buy dairy-free chocolate in any grocery store in a baking aisle. Make sure it's a good quality chocolate. Please notice that this recipe is sugar-free. Most chocolate chips and bars however contain sugar. If you want to keep the recipe completely free of sugar, I recommend buying sugar-free chocolate chips or bar. I recommend Hu brand.
- Adding melted chocolate. Please note, the chocolate shouldn't be very hot. Once it melted, I waited just a few minutes for it to slightly cool before folding it into whipped aquafaba.
- Also note, that once you start folding the chocolate, the whipped aquafaba will slightly deflate. It's normal and you shouldn't worry about it. Just make sure not to overmix.
- Stand mixer instructions. If you have a stand mixer, you can beat your aquafaba in there. Make sure the bowl is dry. Add the bean liquid to a bowl of a mixer attached with a whisk and whip until desired consistency.
- dry
- Stiff peaks. To help aquafaba hold its shape even better, I suggest adding about ⅛ teaspoon of cream of tartar and beating it together with aquafaba.
- Storing. This vegetarian Chocolate Mousse has to be stored in the refrigerator. It should keep well for about 3 days. After that, it will start to loose some of its volume.
