Vegan Peanut Butter Mousse

This mousse is incredibly creamy, using a base of coconut cream or silken tofu for a light, airy finish.

Ingredients

  • 1 cup Creamy peanut butter (natural is best)

  • 1 can (13.5 oz) Full-fat coconut milk, chilled overnight (use only the solid cream from the top)

  • 1/2 cup Maple syrup or agave nectar

  • 1 tsp Vanilla extract

  • Pinch of sea salt

  • For the Ganache Topping: 1/2 cup vegan chocolate chips melted with 2 tbsp coconut milk.

Instructions

  1. Prepare the Base: Scoop the hardened coconut cream from the top of the chilled can into a large chilled bowl. Whisk with a hand mixer until fluffy.

  2. Blend: Fold in the creamy peanut butter, sweetener, vanilla, and salt. Whisk again until the mixture is completely smooth and light.

  3. Set: Divide the mousse into individual serving bowls. Let them chill in the refrigerator for at least 2 hours to firm up.

  4. Top: Once set, pour a thin layer of the chocolate ganache over each bowl.

  5. Serve: Add a few crushed peanuts on top for a delightful crunch before serving.
