Ingredient

  • 1 1/2 cup (375ml) water
  • 1 cup (100g) shredded coconut
  • 1 1/2 cup (180g) cocoa powder
  • 3 cups (500g) fresh cherries, pitted

Instructions

  • Make coconut milk with shredded coconut and water. Only use 250ml (1 cup) of the milk you obtain.
  • Blend this portion with the cocoa powder, cherries, honey, and kirsch (or vanilla or cherry extract) until you get a smooth cream.
  • Incorporate coconut oil and melted cocoa butter while stirring slowly for a few moments, so that the chocolate doesn’t split.

  • Serve mousse in 4 cups. You can garnish with a cherry and a half slice of orange.
