Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 1 can (14 oz) full-fat coconut milk
- 1 cup dark chocolate chips (vegan)
- 2 tablespoons maple syrup
- 1 teaspoon pure vanilla extract
- 2 tablespoons cocoa powder
- 1 pinch sea salt
Instructions
Refrigerate the can of coconut milk overnight to allow the cream to separate from the liquid.
Open the can of coconut milk and scoop out only the solid cream into a medium saucepan over low heat. Save the remaining liquid for another use.
Add the dark chocolate chips to the coconut cream in the saucepan. Stir continuously until the chocolate has melted completely and the mixture is smooth. Be cautious not to overheat or boil the mixture.
Remove the saucepan from the heat and stir in the maple syrup, vanilla extract, cocoa powder, and sea salt until fully combined.
Transfer the mixture into a blender or use an immersion blender for a creamier texture. Blend on high speed for about 30 seconds.
Pour the chocolate cream into individual serving dishes or a large bowl.
Allow the cream to cool at room temperature and then refrigerate for at least 2 hours or until set.
Serve chilled. Optionally, garnish with fresh berries or a sprinkle of cocoa powder before serving.
