So simple to make, this chocolate mousse is gorgeously indulgent. After one spoonful, you will wonder why you haven’t been making this for years.
Perfect for a romantic pudding but it also keeps brilliantly in the fridge so you can reach for it when you need a fantastic chocolate fix!
Ingredients:
2 x 400ml tins of full fat coconut milk (these need to be left overnight in the fridge)
2 tablespoons of icing sugar, sifted
150g dark chocolate, melted (use vegan if you prefer)
50g dark chocolate, coarsely grated
80g Lizi’s Belgian Chocolate Granola
Method (to make 6 small mousses).
- Chill the tins of coconut milk in the fridge overnight.
- With the hob on a medium heat, place the heatproof bowl over a pan of simmering water. Be careful that the water doesn’t boil and avoid over stirring. If easier, melt the chocolate in a heatproof bowl in 30-second bursts in the microwave and stir.
- Put the melted chocolate on one side to cool.
- Open the tins of coconut milk at the bottom and pour into a large jug. You just need the cream.
- Scrape the thick coconut cream into a large mixing bowl. Add in the icing sugar and whisk until light and fluffy. (Use an electric whisk if you have one to hand.)
- Spoon a small amount of the whipped coconut cream into a cup and place to one side.
- Gently fold the melted chocolate into the whipped coconut cream.
- Gently fold three quarters of the grated chocolate into the mixture.
- Place a generous layer of Lizi’s Belgian Chocolate Granola into the bottom of six little jam jars or glasses.
- Spoon the chocolate mousse on top of the granola and smooth a little.
- Place some of the coconut cream on top (from the cup that you put to the side) and decorate with the rest of the chocolate grating and chocolate granola. Enjoy!
