Vegan orange chocolate mousse
Who would have thought chickpea brine makes one of the best chocolate mousse creations around. You have to try this one!
Ingredients
What you need
- 225g g sweet potato, peeled and cooked
- 125 g smooth peanut butter
- 50 g natural cocoa powder
- 6 tbsp maple syrup
- 1 tbsp orange zest
- 120 ml chickpea brine
- 1/2 tsp lemon juice
Instructions
- Place cooked sweet potato and peanut butter in a food processor. Process until smooth and, then add cocoa powder, maple syrup, and orange zest, and blend again until smooth.
- Place chickpea brine in a clean bowl. Add lemon juice and whip with a hand mixer until you achieve stiff peaks (this can take around 3-6 mins) – you should be able to invert the bowl, and the whipped brine should not move an inch.
- Fold whipped chickpea brine into the chocolate and mix until well combined. The mixture will deflate slightly.
- Spoon the mixture between 4 small serving glasses and place in the fridge for 8 hours (or overnight) for the mousse to set.
