Yields
4-6 servings
Ingredients
125g dark chocolate (I used 70%)
1 cup of chickpea liquid from canned chickpeas (aquafaba)
2 Tbs maple syrup
Directions
1. Place the chocolate in a bowl over a pan of simmering water and let it melt completely. Stir well and let cool for a few minutes.
2. Add the maple syrup to the aquafaba and beat up with an electric beater until firm.
3. Incorporate the beaten aquafaba to the melted chocolate gently, until blended.
4. Pour into ramekins and let cool at least 1 hour in the fridge.
Notes
Aquafaba is the name for the viscous water in which legume seeds such as chickpeas have been cooked.
This chocolate mousse is so rich and creamy... and totally guilt-free! There are only 3 ingredients: chocolate, maple syrup and aquafaba. Whoever was bored enough in the kitchen to come up with the idea of beating chickpea water, is a true genius!
