Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 1 can (400 ml) Full-fat coconut milk
- 150 grams Dark chocolate (dairy-free, at least 70% cocoa)
- 2 tablespoons Maple syrup
- 1 teaspoon Vanilla extract
- 1 pinch Sea salt
- 1 teaspoon Cocoa powder (optional, for garnish)
- 100 grams Fresh berries (optional, for serving)
Instructions
Place the can of coconut milk in the refrigerator for at least 4 hours or overnight to allow the cream to separate from the liquid.
Once chilled, open the can and scoop out the solid coconut cream into a mixing bowl. Discard the remaining liquid or save it for another recipe.
Chop the dark chocolate into small pieces and place it in a heatproof bowl over a pot of simmering water (double boiler method). Stir occasionally until the chocolate is fully melted and smooth.
Remove the melted chocolate from the heat and allow it to cool for 2-3 minutes.
Using an electric hand mixer, whip the coconut cream on medium speed until it becomes light and fluffy, about 2-3 minutes.
Gradually fold the melted chocolate into the whipped coconut cream, being careful not to deflate the mixture.
Add the maple syrup, vanilla extract, and a pinch of sea salt. Gently fold until all ingredients are fully combined and the mousse is smooth.
Transfer the mousse into serving glasses or bowls and refrigerate for at least 1 hour to set.
Before serving, optionally dust the top with cocoa powder and garnish with fresh berries.
