Dark Chocolate Mousse
Servings 4
Calories 274 kcal
Ingredients
- 2 Eggs
- 1/4 c Pure maple syrup
- 1 tsp Vanilla extract
- 2 tbsp Dark chocolate cocoa powder (unsweetened)
- 1/3 c Dark chocolate chips (optional)
- 3/4 c Coconut milk
- 1 pint Raspberries (or other fresh fruit)
Instructions
-
Add eggs, maple syrup, vanilla, cocoa powder, and optional chocolate chips to a blender. Blend well until combined.
-
Bring the coconut milk to a very high heat (not boiling) in a saucepan on the stove.
-
Once the coconut milk is hot, add it to the other ingredients in the blender in a slow and steady stream, while blending everything on low. This will melt the chocolate chips (if you opted to use them) and will “cook” the raw eggs.
-
Once everything is combined, pour the chocolate into small serving dishes and refrigerate for a minimum of two hours, so that it has time to set.
-
Serve with fresh raspberries or other fresh fruit of choice.
