I’ve tried many chocolate mousse recipes with red beans, sweet potatoes, and aquafaba. This is the closest you will get from a ‘real’ chocolate mousse.

Ingredients

8 servings

150g aquafaba

80g caster sugar

1/2 tsp xanthan gum

150g  dark chocolate, minimum 70%

100ml coconut cream

100ml oat cream

Method

  1. Whisk the aquafaba in a bowl with an electric whisk or stand mixer until stiff.
  2. Gradually add the sugar, then continue whisking for 10 minutes until glossy and thick.
  3. Add the xanthan gum and whisk for 3 minutes at high speed.
  4. While the meringue is whisking, put the chocolate in a medium bowl over a small saucepan half-filled with water. Set the pan over moderately high heat until the water gently simmers. Stir the chocolate until it has completely melted and no lumps remain.
  5. Put the creams in a small saucepan and bring to a boil. Transfer the chocolate bowl to the worktop and pour the hot cream.
  6. Whisk well, then gently fold the meringue into the chocolate and spoon it into a large bowl.
  7. Cover and refrigerate for 20 minutes.

A British pub classic. This is the best sticky toffee pudding, not because I’ve made it. You can replace the pecan with nuts or not add any. Same for the pear in the sticky sauce.
