Chocolate mousse with red papaya
Recipe collaboration with Live Love Nourish
Ingredients:
2 cups Ruby Rise red papaya, peeled, deseeded, diced & pre-frozen for minimum 2 hours
3/4 cup full fat canned coconut milk
3 tbsp cacao powder
2 tbsp maple syrup (or honey)
Thick vanilla coconut yoghurt
Dark chocolate, shavings
Method:
In a blender combine all ingredients until creamy. Pour into serving glasses and refrigerate to thicken.
Serve topped with coconut yoghurt and dark chocolate shavings.
Recipe Notes:
Optional - add 1 tsp vanilla extract
Optional - add 1/2-1 cup frozen banana pieces
Sweeten to liking with extra honey or maple syrup to taste. If you have frozen chopped papaya overnight, you may need to allow to slightly soften before blending. Depending on your blender.
Instead of coconut yoghurt you can also serve topped whipped coconut cream solids (refrigerated overnight).
