Equipment

  • Immersion Blender or Regular Blender
  • Small Saucepan for optional chocolate topping
  • Large Saucepan for optional chocolate topping

Ingredients
  

For the Mousse

  • 2 tbsp creamy peanut butter
  • 4 tsp agave nectar
  • ¼ tsp vanilla extract
  • 2 tbsp unflavored silken tofu
  • ¼ cup canned coconut cream
  • pinch pink salt

Optional Chocolate Topping

  • 7 tbsp vegan semisweet chocolate chips
  • splash water

Optional Topping

  • vegan whipped cream

Instructions
 

  • Blend together all the ingredients in a large bowl for the mousse using a blender.
  • Once the mixture is fully blended, pour the mousse into a cup. Place this in the refrigerator for at least one hour, until thickened.
  • If making the chocolate layer, add the chocolate with a splash of water if needed, in a small saucepan.
  • Fill a larger saucepan with water, and place this on the stovetop over medium-low heat.
  • Place the smaller saucepan with the chocolate on top of the larger one. This creates a "double boiler" method at home, and avoids the chocolate clumping when it melts.
  • Constantly stir the chocolate with a whisk or spatula to melt.
  • Once melted, remove the saucepans from the stovetop. Pour the chocolate mixture over the refrigerated peanut butter mousse in the cup.
  • Refrigerate for an hour or two, until the chocolate shell is hardened.
  • When serving, top with optional vegan whipped cream, if desired. Enjoy!
