3-Ingredient Chocolate Mousse, Vegan & Gluten-Free
Today’s totally decadent Valentine’s day treat seriously could not be easier to make. Rich, creamy and decadent, whether you make this dessert for your sweetie or your gal-pals, I promise they’ll never guess it’s made with only 3 ingredients!
This Vegan & Gluten-Free 3-Ingredient Chocolate Mousse is simply made of coconut cream, cocoa powder and maple syrup. The result is a light and delicious mousse!
The magic ingredient in this recipe is full fat coconut milk that’s been chilled overnight. I like to keep a few cans in my refrigerator so I’m always ready if a dessert needs to be topped with whipped cream.
In the photos you’ll notice that I added raspberries and made mini parfaits in shot glasses. I think this is a really cute party dessert idea (especially if you’re celebrating Galentine’s Day) but it also feels fancy enough for a romantic dinner for two.
- 1 can full fat coconut milk, chilled in refrigerator overnight
- 2 tbs cocoa powder
- 2 tbs maple syrup
- raspberries for garnish
- Chilling the can of coconut milk overnight (at least 8 hours) will cause the cream and liquid to separate. Remove can of coconut milk from refrigerator and open it. Scoop the cream into the blender and discard the liquid.
- Blend the cream with cocoa powder and maple syrup until completely smooth. Store in refrigerator or serve right away with raspberries.
