This recipe is dairy-free thanks to the coconut milk packed with healthy fats. Just remember to keep the cans in the fridge overnight without shaking them – this allows the cream to set on top.

Healthy Dark Chocolate Mousse Recipe

Recipe by: Dina Hassan

Meet the creamiest, richest mousse you’ve ever tasted. Dairy-free and packed with antioxidant dark chocolate, this Paleo dessert keeps things deliciously healthy.

Ingredients

• 7 oz dark chocolate, roughly chopped
• 1 1/2 cans coconut milk, refrigerated overnight
• 1/4 cup raw honey
• 1/4 cup cocoa powder
• Seeds from one fresh vanilla pod
• 2 squares dark chocolate, shaved, for garnish
• Fresh berries, for garnish

Instructions

• Place the chocolate in a heatproof bowl over a pan of gently simmering water (don’t let the bowl touch the water). Stir until melted, remove bowl from the heat and set aside to cool slightly.
• Take coconut milk out of the fridge and scoop out the thick cream on top.
• Place the coconut cream in a medium bowl. Add honey. Using a hand mixer, beat on high for 2 minutes until thick and creamy. Reserve 4 tablespoons of the whipped cream to use as a topping to serve with the mousse. Set aside.
• Fold in the melted chocolate, scraped vanilla seeds and cocoa powder. Beat on low for 1 minute, until smooth and thick.
• Divide the mousse between 4 small serving glasses. Top with whipped coconut cream, shaved chocolate and berries. Enjoy!

Pro Tip: Make sure to use full-fat coconut cream, not light coconut milk, which has a higher water content and not enough cream for the recipe.
