Vegan Chocolate Mousse
Vegan Chocolate Mousse
Ingredients
- 2 cans full-fat coconut milk, refrigerated for 8 hours or up to overnight
- 2/3 cup unsweetened cocoa powder
- 1/2 cup vegan confectioners' sugar
- 1/2 teaspoon salt
- 1 teaspoon pure vanilla extract
Instructions
- 1
Gather the ingredients.

Scrape the solid coconut cream from the cans into the bowl of a stand mixer fitted with the whisk attachment (alternatively, use a handheld electric mixer and a large mixing bowl), leaving the liquid coconut milk behind. This should yield slightly less than two cups of solid coconut cream. Reserve the liquid coconut milk for another use.
- 3
Sift the cocoa powder, confectioners' sugar, and salt together in a medium bowl. Set aside.

Beat the coconut cream until very smooth and soft peaks appear, about 2 minutes. Remove 1/4 cup of the cream. Cover and transfer to the refrigerator for topping the mousse.
2 min - 5
With the mixer running on low, slowly sprinkle in the sifted cocoa-sugar mixture into the remaining coconut cream until well combined, scraping down the bowl as needed. Continue beating until stiff peaks form. Beat in vanilla extract until just combined.

Divide the mousse between four dessert cups. Refrigerate for one hour, or until firm. Top each cup with the reserved whipped topping and serve.
