Vegan Chocolate Mousse
This rich and creamy vegan chocolate mousse recipe is made with avocado and topped with whipped coconut cream.
Ingredients
- 4 ounces bittersweet chocolate chips or vegan chocolate chips, 60-70% cacao
- 3 ripe avocado pitted
- ½ cup coconut milk or milk of choice, full-fat
- ¼ cup cocoa powder
- 1 teaspoon vanilla
- 1 teaspoon cinnamon
- ¼ teaspoon salt (optional)
Instructions
- To melt the chocolate chips, create a double boiler by placing a bowl on top of a pan filled with 3 inches of simmering water. Gently stir the chocolate chips until they are fully melted then remove from heat.
- Place the pitted avocados, milk, cocoa powder, vanilla, cinnamon and salt in a high speed food processor and pulse until smooth. Pour in melted chocolate and pulse once again until everything is evenly incorporated.
- Pour mixture into four serving dishes or glasses and refrigerate until firm, a minimum of 3 hours. Serve with whipped cream or whipped coconut cream if you wish.
Notes
- If you don’t have chocolate chips on hand a roughly chopped chocolate baking bar will also work.
- Serve with whipped cream or whipped coconut cream if you wish.
