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!!

A rich, decadent, creamy chocolate mousse made with coconut milk and cream cheese.
Serves: 4½ cup servings
Ingredients
  • 4 oz cream cheese, fat free

  • 1 tsp. vanilla extract
  • 1 14oz can coconut, full fat

Instructions
  1. Place the coconut milk in the refrigerator for 24 hours. Do not open or shake the can. Don't touch it!
  2. The next day:
  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. You may have to scrap down the sides of the bowl a few times. Taste to see if you need more sugar or cocoa powder.

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!!!!

Hello Tuesday! One more day closer to the weekend. Hello Tuesday! One more day closer to the weekend. It’s time! The lemons are coming out.  I can’t wait to do my tablescape. I’m just debating on the centerpiece. That will come in a couple of weeks.
💛
Today I am sharing with you the gorgeous dough bowl candle that I got from @hiveandhome.shop. I can’t even telling you how much I love the scent. I got Coconut Lime Verbena. It smells like summer. So fresh and clean.
💛
Hive and Home Shop is a small family owned business in beautiful Utah. Each candle is hand poured with 100% soy wax. The dough bowls are hand carved so each one is unique. I think that’s pretty cool!
💛
The bowls are reusable, you can get a candle refill kit or you can use your dough bowl for decor. They come in a bunch of different shapes and sizes including a heart.
💛
Hive and Home Shop is giving my followers a 20% discount code: JENNIFER20

What is your favorite candle scent?
Happy Monday! We had such a nice weekend. It hit t Happy Monday! We had such a nice weekend. It hit the mid 80’s, which was such a nice change. It made me realize that I need to buy some shorts. I put in quite a few pounds in 2020. Ugh!
🌸
I put together this little vignette to help me with ideas for my next tablescape. I’m definitely going with lemons and I’m thinking soft pastels, but we’ll see.
🌸
I bought that pretty bottle of grapefruit soda from Trader Joe’s. I haven’t tried it yet, but I thought it was so pretty that I had to buy it. Who buys food for the packaging? I guess that’s me. lol
🌸
The beautiful rustic wood riser that everything is on is @fromsusie. It’s the perfect size and it is distressed with flame aging. So cool! It’s such a unique, fun piece to decorate with. The link to From Susie is in my bio.
🌸
The cute marble and wood floral engraved cutting board is from my good friend Brantley from @thesassyoak. I love that cutting board so much. The floral engraving is so beautiful. Probably one of my favorite kitchen pieces.
🌸
Do you buy anything just for the packaging?

Happy Thursday! It’s been a crazy week over at m Happy Thursday! It’s been a crazy week over at my house this week. I started rearranging things around and left messes throughout my house. I start in one spot and it spread throughout. I need to do some major cleanup before the weekend.
💙
One thing I did was change my table in my dining room. I went more neutral until I start to bring the lemons out. I can’t wait for lemon season. I already have a tablescape in mind.
💙
I got the cute Home Sweet Home sign from my friend Brantley from @thesassyoak. It’s in the perfect spot. When you walk into my house you see the table right away. Isn’t the sign so cute? It matches my home so beautifully.

What are your plans for the weekend?

Happy Wednesday!! Half way through the week. Boy I Happy Wednesday!! Half way through the week. Boy I can’t wait for the weekend. I’m looking so forward to finish working in the garden. Well, technically it will never be finished, which I don’t mind. I want to plant a tomato this weekend. Just not sure what kind?
🌿
I refreshed my living room just a tad bit. I took down most of the bunnies, and that is all. I had a lot of them. It made me realize that I forgot my coffee bar. I still have bunnies, chicks and eggs on it. They’ll have to come down this week.
🌿
I have a surprise! Swipe my photo and you’ll see Sampson! He hasn’t made an appearance here in awhile. He said he misses you all!

Are you planting any vegetables this season?

My Mom got these by saving the stamps you would get from the grocery store with purchase. Each piece of China had a stamp value.

Happy Thursday! I changed up my dining room a lit Happy Thursday! I changed up my dining room  a little bit. I took out my Easter decor and gave it a more neutral look and did some switching around. Plus I added a Samantha Sue, who is laying down in the photo. lol
🍓
One of my favorite pieces that I added was my new @krumpetshomedecor sign. I love the style of the sign with the shiplap white wash look and of course the cute strawberry and daisies that add a pretty pop of color.
🍓
The sign is also reversible. It also says Life is Sweet on the other side without the strawberries and daises. The sign is the Krumpets Home Decor deal of the week.

Hello and happy Wednesday! Thank you for all your Hello and happy Wednesday!  Thank you for all your kind words about the dentist. All he had to do is cement my crown back on. He said your crown has sticky with clear stuff on it. He said I don’t think it’s the old cement?  I told him I ate a white Trader Joe’s jelly bean and I thought I got it all off. He was laughing.
🌿
It’s that time of year for house plant care. While your plants are waking from dormancy, it’s time to feed them, repot them if needed and give a trim if applicable.
🌿
I also water my plants about every 7-10 days, depending on the plant. My coffee plant, fern, violet and my mixed plant container needs watering more. The key to know when to water is check the soil. I use a water meter probe and  you just stick it in the dirt. If it’s dry, I water. If it’s moist or wet, I’ll check again in a few days. You can get a water meter at Lowe’s, your local nursery or Amazon. It’s my number 1 garden tool. We use it on outside plants too.
🌿
I’m also sharing with you my cute little tea towel that I got from @e.h.designco. Her shop is closed right now because she’s moving, but will be open back in June.
🌿
Okay, go check your plants!
🌿
What’s your favorite house plant?

🌸
Today I am sharing with you my new plates and bowls that I got from @sonemone_official. I just love them. The shade of blue is so pretty and I love the vibrant colors on them.
🌸
The bowls are huge and would make a wonderful soup bowl or salad bowl. The plates would be beautiful served with a charcuterie board. They are microwave and dishwasher safe. They would be so pretty on a summer tablescape.
🌸
Are you ready for summer decorating?
