Chocolate Coconut Mousse

February 13, 2013 By Jennifer @ PB and P Design 33 Comments

Hi Everyone,

Well one more day till Valentine’s Day!  I can’t believe how times flies!  It feels like Christmas was yesterday!  Today I have for you the most creamy, decadent chocolate dessert,  that is no bake, easy to make and is so perfect for Valentine’s Day!  I promise it will please any chocolate lover in your life!

Chocolate Coconut Mousse

This is my Chocolate Coconut Mousse.  Let me tell you, this will satisfy any chocolate craving that you have!  I wasn’t kidding you when I said this is so decadent and rich!   I decided to make a mousse for my Husband for an early V-day treat!  I never saw someone who loved or ate so much chocolate as much as my Husband!  He’s worse than me, and I didn’t think that was possible!!

Chocolate Coconut Mousse


I made this mousse with canned, full fat coconut milk.  I bought it at Trader Joe’s.  What you must do, is take your full fat coconut milk, leave it in the can and put it in the refrigerator for at least 24 hours.  When your ready to use it, carefully open the can and spoon out the solid coconut.  Do not use the liquid at the bottom of the can.  You should have about a half cup of left over coconut liquid. You can discard it or use it in a smoothie.  Just don’t add it to the mousse. I also used 4 oz of fat free cream cheese, which works out nicely, however, since it’s fat free, you tend to get little white specks of cream cheese.  That doesn’t bother me, but if you want it to look perfect, I would recommend 1/3 less fat cream cheese.

Chocolate Coconut Mousse

This dessert would be really easy to make vegan!  I would skip the cream cheese all together or use a vegan cream cheese.  I am amazed how coconut can be whipped up to be like whipped cream!!  I love it!!  I have been just dying to try this kind of recipe!!  I can’t wait for my Husband to come home so he can try it!  I just know he will be tickled pink!!

  3. In a large mixing bowl add cream cheese and sugar; beat until combined. Add vanilla extract and beat until incorporated. Very important; Spoon out the coconut cream and place in cream cheese mixture and beat until light and fluffy. ( NOTE: do not use the liquid coconut milk, you just want the solids from the can. You should have about a ½ cup of liquid coconut milk left over. Discard it or use for another purpose.) Beat in cocoa powder, until light and fluffy.

Chocolate Coconut Mousse

I posted this recipe today because you need 24 hours for the coconut milk to be refrigerated  if you decided to make it!  I’m telling you if you are a chocolate lover this is the dessert for you.  Yes I know there is fat in it, but it’s a healthy fat!  A little bit of fat once in a while is ok, just don’t have it for dessert every night!  🙂

Have a great day everyone!

Toodles,

Jennifer

    I have never heard of the “presweet” ingredient and have no idea where to get this. I won’t be making this for Valentine’s Day, but I will be making this on Monday with dinner. It’ll be such a great way to start off the week. Also, perfect timing considering I’ll be going to Trader Joe’s on Saturday-I absolutely LOVE Trader Joe’s and all the great products they have!!!!

This is a view if my livingroom. I really like how I styled my console table. The bunny sign and egg tree are from my friends @12timbers. I’ll be sad when Easter is over.

The candles are from my friends @goldhillcandleco. They are hand poured, 100% soy and have a wooden wick. They smell so fresh and clean. These two candles are from the March subscription box. I highly recommend.

Happy first day of Spring! Though you wouldn’t k Happy first day of Spring! Though you wouldn’t know it in California. We are still getting rain and it’s in the mid 50’s. We should be in the 70’s by now. I wonder what the summer temps will be like this year?
🌺
Even though it may not feel like Spring,  there is no reason why we can’t start prepping for it. It’s going to be time soon to plant flowers, add a floral wreath to the front door and of course a welcome mat to invite everyone to your home. 
🌺
I wanted to share with you my new welcome mat that I got from @cocomatsnmore. They just had their Spring release and oh my gosh so many cute ones. I love there welcome mats. They are thick, bright colors and fast shipping. I absolutely love the flowers and the saying “Live Life in Full Bloom”. It’s so very true.
🌺
What are you most looking forward to this Spring?

🫧
I did have a very hard time taking my sink tray off the counter. I’ve had the tray there for years, so I thought I would change it up. Don’t be surprised if the sink tray makes its way back. 😂 I may add some herbs to my window sill for some fresh green color.

My husband and I are not fancy when it comes to eating dinner. Since it’s just the two of us, we never use the dining room table, but always eat at the kitchen counter.
🥕
There is no reason why we can’t eat fancy at the kitchen counter. I am using my new placemats that I got from @vmathome. They are thick, water, stain resistant and can handle heat up to 350F degrees. I love the color and style of the placemats. They have a wide variety of styles and colors, along with matching table runners.
🥕
I styled my table with bright spring colors that I was inspired by carrots. I still have bunnies on the brain. lol I had fun with this place setting, it’s so nice to have dinner with a little style then having it on a plain plate and paper napkins.
🥕
Have a wonderful weekend!!

Happy March 1st! Everyday is a day closer to Sprin Happy March 1st! Everyday is a day closer to Spring. I looked back last year at this time and my garden was starting to flourish. Boy you should see it now. It’s a big muddy mess. With all the rain and high winds we sure have a huge mess to clean. I can’t wait until we get some warm days. 
🐰
I’m sharing with you one of my favorite vignettes that I created last year. I may have a slight obsession with bunnies. Every year I say no more buying bunnies, but then I end up with a few more in my collection. Lol

Have a beautiful day!
