Paleo Chocolate Mousse Slice
Paleo, keto and low carb friendly + gluten, dairy, nut, grain, egg and sugar free
You can imagine this like a cross between chocolate pannacotta + cheesecake + mousse
Base Ingredients
1.5 cups shredded coconut
1 Tbsp of your preferred sweetener (I used Lakanto which is Keto friendly)
1 tsp cinnamon
Pinch of salt
1 heaped Tbsp cacao powder
1 cup activated or raw pepita or sunflower seeds (or use a mix of the two)
1.5-2 Tbsp coconut oil
Optional; 1-2 Tbsp collagen powder (for an extra gut loving boost) (omit if vegan)
Chocolate Layer Ingredients
3 medium sized avocados
200ml (1/2 a can) coconut cream (the thick part) or use homemade nut milk as an alternative
3-6 Tbsp cacao powder
Sweetener to taste (I used Lakanto which is Keto friendly)
Pinch of salt
1 tsp cinnamon
Seeds of 1 vanilla bean
1/4 cup melted cacao butter
2 Tbsp melted coconut oil
Instructions
Add all of the base ingredients except the coconut oil into your food processor and blitz until it resembles a course flour. Add the coconut oil and re-blend.
Press the base mixture into a lined bread loaf tin or container evenly. Pop it in the fridge while you prepare the chocolate filling.
Add all the filling ingredients to a quality blender or food processor and blend until smooth and creamy. Taste and adjust the sweetener or cacao if desired and re-blend.
Pour the filling on top of the base and then place it back in the fridge to set.
Once it’s ready, slice into squares and enjoy!
