Guilt-Free Chocolate Mousse

This pudding requires three ingredients and literally takes three minutes to assemble! It’s delicious and not nearly as chemical ridden as the store bought instant puddings. Plus it tastes better. You could eat it straight or add fruit to it (strawberries anyone?) You could layer it in a parfait or even spread it on a cake as frosting. Yum! You will need: coconut cream, cocoa powder & liquid sweetener (I like maple syrup). Coconut cream is the layer of cream-like substance on the top of a CHILLED can of coconut milk. You can also buy a can of coconut cream at well stocked grocery stores. And if you’ve never tried this stuff—it’s the bomb!

 

Coconut Cream Chocolate Pudding

1 cup coconut cream

2 tbsp cocoa or cacao* powder

2 tbsp liquid sweetener

Combine all with fork. Bask in delicious glory.

In general my ratio is 8 parts coconut cream to 1 part sweetener AND 1 part cocoa powder. The beauty of this recipe is that you can experiment as you’d like! If you like a stronger chocolate flavor; simply add more cocoa or cacao powder!

 *Cacao is a less processed version of cocoa powder. It tastes the exact same and can be used 1 for 1 in place of cocoa powder. Read this for more info! 

Try it out and let me know what you think!

Lots of Love,
