I spent the day at home alone, and it just seemed like the perfect opportunity to make myself a nice, decadent chocolate dessert! :)It's completely rich and creamy, with a subtle coconut flavor. It keeps for several days, if you can stay away!
Vegan Chocolate Mousse
1 1/2 cups soy or any other kind of non-dairy milk
1/4 cup unsweetened cocoa powder
vanilla
1 cup organic, extra virgin coconut oil
12 oz. bittersweet chocolate chips (or you could add unsweetened chocolate and mix some maple syrup into the mousse)
Melt the chocolate chips in the microwave or over a water bath. (When melting chocolate in the microwave I always run it for 30 seconds, then stir, then another 30 seconds, because it's easy to burn chocolate). Place all ingredients, except for the chocolate in a food processor and blend well. While the machine is running, add the chocolate. Refrigerate for at least an hour. Enjoy!!
Yum! I'll have to try that - I've been making chocolate treats for the kids, but as an excuse to sneak in avocado, spirulina and other healthy things they normally wouldn't touch:-)
ReplyDeleteI bet this would be good with a little avocado thrown in...you could reduce the amount of coconut oil (although that's good for you too)!
