Vegan Chocolate Mousse with Aquafaba and Almond milk

Recipe

5 ratings
With about 15 minutes of vigorous beating, chickpea water triples in volume, resembling whipped egg whites. It can be baked into a meringue or whipped into mayonnaise, and when it’s folded into a mix of melted chocolate and almond milk, it makes the lightest-textured chocolate mousse. What’s more, it comes together more quickly than any I’ve ever made.

step 1
Drain the Canned Chickpeas (425 g) and put 200 milliliter of the chickpea water in the bowl of a standard mixer. Add Cream of Tartar (1/4 tsp), Salt (1/4 tsp), Powdered Confectioners Sugar (4 Tbsp). Beat on medium high speed for 15 minutes. After this, the liquid should have tripled in volume, and it should be able to hold stiff peaks.

Meanwhile, melt the 70% Dark Chocolate (200 g) and Almond Milk (80 mL) in a double boiler or in the microwave at 30-second intervals until the chocolate is all melted. Stir to combine the mixture, then transfer it to a large mixing bowl.

step 3
Fold the whipped aquafaba into the chocolate-almond milk mixture in batches—be delicate. Transfer the chocolate mousse into small serving vessels, then transfer to the fridge to let the mousse set up — in about an hour it will start to set. Store in fridge.
