Becca’s Chocolatey Orange and Cointreau Mousse [wheat, dairy and egg free!]
I was craving something sweet and chocolately but didn’t have any pudding so i kind of adapted and merged two recipes together and discovered a gorgeous rich chocoalte mousse. It is also wheat and dairy free.
Ingredients 6oz soya butter 6oz icing sugar 2oz cocoa [though i used ~4 oz cocoa] Juice of one orange [or 1 cup of orange juice] 1 shot (~30 ml) Cointreau
• use a table spoon to mash the soya butter into the icing sugar. Keep stiring untill you get “butter creme†of smooth consistancy
• Stir in the cocoa a fraction at a time. Taste the chocolate mouss and keep adding cocoa untill you have a flavour that you like
• Stir in the orange juice and Cointreau.
• Taste the mousse add a little more cocoa or icing sugar if you want.
Tips This mousse is great served with fresh strawberries and/or rasberries. It can be quite rich so don’t induldge too much!!!
