One thing I never liked about real mousse (when I wasn't vegan) is that usually it would leave me feeling quite heavy - but with this one it both tastes like real mousse and doesn't make you feel heavy! (I think this qualifies it as being the perfect chocolate mousse!)

Ingredients
(Makes around 3 mini mousse bowls full)
- 2 cans of coconut cream (2 x 160ml cans)
- 1 1/2 tbs of cocoa/ cacao powder (more if you want it more chocolatey than I have it in my picture)
- 1 tsp of vanilla extract or seeds from 1 vanilla pod
- Sweetener to taste (I would use around 2 tsp of maple syrup or honey or 1 packet of truvia/ stevia - but use more or less depending on how big your sweet tooth is!)
Method
- Pour out the coconut cream into a bowl and whip it up until all the coconut cream and liquid are combined
- Place the coconut cream in the freezer for 45 mins to an hour - the top of it should be slightly frozen
- Now add the cocoa powder and sweetener and vanilla and whip up with an electric whisk until all combined
- Serve in small mousse bowls. You could add chopped fruit of chocolate sprinkles to the top to make it look pretty!
