I’ve been on a serious mousse-kick lately, and can you blame me? Creamy + fluffy desserts are never a bad move, but I especially enjoy them in the summer months when you want something that’s a tad decadent but still on the lighter side. And this Cacao Maca Mousse with Coconut Whipped Cream is exactly that.
This mousse is vegan, paleo-friendly, and perfect to make when you want a single-serving lil’ special something for yourself 😉 The recipe can easily be doubled etc. if you want to make a larger batch!
A heads up that the whipped cream base needs to sit overnight, so be sure to do that first.
