This airy, delicious Aquafaba Chocolate Mousse with a delicate vanilla flavor is the best vegan choice for the upcoming Valentine’s Day! One of the perks of this recipe is that the hand-on time will take only 15 minutes. But only make sure you chill the coconut milk in the fridge for at least a night before cooking. And you will get a fluffy cloudy mousse with a gentle coconut flavor, which is perfect for a romantic date with your significant other.
What is absolutely fascinating about this recipe is that it is dairy-free and egg-free. Aquafaba, a.k.a. chickpea liquid, is a genius substitute for eggs. And it is easy to whip up, too. The trick is to use a hand or stand mixer. Whipping aquafaba takes about 10 minutes to reach stiff peaks. Besides, you cannot over whip it like heavy cream. The aquafaba creates that airy and light mousse that we all love, but without cream and eggs – win-win! So, if you are a part of the vegan community or you simply don’t want to use cream or raw eggs, you will surely appreciate this recipe. And because chocolate mousse is all about happiness, enjoy this recipe and spread more love around you!
