ingredients

  • 3 1/2 ounces dark chocolate
  • 2 tablespoons grated coconut
  • 1/2 cup plus 2 tablespoons aquafaba, liquid reserved from a can of chickpeas

Method

  • Step 1

    Melt the chocolate in a bowl over a pan on simmering water until smooth. You can add a tablespoon of maple syrup if you want to but it's really optional as the grated coconut already add sweetening to the mousse. Let it cool.

  • Step 2

    Whisk the aquafaba with a mixer until you get that white fluffy consistency as you would for eggs whites.

  • Step 3

    Carefully fold in the chocolate with a spatula and stir slowly until well combined. Then add the grated coconut and mix again.

  • Step 4

    Then place the mousse in yogurt jar or a bowl if you prefer and let it cool for 1 hour in the refrigerator so it gets the perfect texture.
