Get your dark chocolate and let’s make some mousse (with just 3 ingredients)! Since discovering the deliciousness that is vegan mousse, I haven’t been able to stop. This chocolate peppermint version has been on my mind for quite a while now, especially since becoming a chocolate-mint convert. They just belong together, am I right? This mousse starts with coconut cream and gets its rich chocolate flavor from a healthy dose of melted dairy-free dark chocolate. The mint infusion comes from pure peppermint extract to add that subtle cool, minty flavor. One bite and I was in love. I mean, look at that! How could you not be? For serving you can either get all fancy and pipe it into serving dishes, or just spoon away for the sake of ease! And if you’re like me, no dessert is complete without a garnish – in this case ample amounts of coconut whipped cream and crushed peppermint candy. This mousse is everything.

And with virtually zero effort, it comes together so fast and will make you look like a top chef! Not into mint? You could also just sub the mint for 1/4 cup salted peanut butter, or leave it plain and top it with fresh raspberries or bananas. You really can’t go wrong! If you try this recipe, let us know!
