Chia Chocolate Mousse

Chia Chocolate Mousse

Note. I don’t really feel there’s the need to add coconut sugar, but my GF strongly disagrees with me; so I’ll let you be the judge of that. It really comes down to how sweet you like your chocolate mousse to be.

Ingredients

Serves 4

⅓ cup unsweetened cocoa powder

2 tablespoons ground chia seeds*

1 banana

1 cup coconut milk (where to buy BPA free coconut milk)

2 tablespoons powdered coconut sugar (optional, for extra sweetness)

pinch of medium coarse sea salt (optional)

* If you can’t find ground chia seeds, you can grind them in a small coffee grinder.

Directions

Combine all ingredients in a blender (or food processor) and process until creamy and smooth.

Place chocolate mousse in a bowl or single serving bowls/ramekins and put in the fridge for at least 30 minutes to allow ground chia seeds to solidify.

If you’re like me and believe that chocolate and salt are a marriage made in heaven, sprinkle with a pinch of sea salt before serving.
