This is so easy, and after sharing it with friends this weekend I am happy to share the recipe too.  

Three ingredients and a blender - that is all you need.  Any blender.

Amounts may vary slightly, play around to get the texture and taste you like.  

Ingredients
  • 4 very ripe bananas
  • 1/2 - 3/4 cup of coconut oil (can use some coconut butter too)**
  • 4 Tablespoons of really good raw cacao powder, like this one (seriously, this is the secret to the recipe!!)

Directions
  • Put bananas, coconut oil and raw cacao powder in the blender 
  • Blend until very smooth
  • You might need to stop the blender and wipe down the side with a spatula once or twice

Option 1 (see below right)
Serve it bowls right away - it is a light fluffy, truly decadent chocolate mousse

Option 2 (see below left)
Pour into a pie tray and refrigerate or freeze
A few hours later, take out, top with berries
Let it warm on the counter until it is soft enough to serve
Note, when I served this today, it all fell apart (see photo above) - but nobody complained, and not a crumb was left!

Option 3
Pour it into ice pop molds and make 'fudgicles' 

Option 4
Use this to make Our Birthday Cake - this will make it a bit richer than the recipe on that page

Option 5
Use this to make frosting for any cake

** The amount of coconut oil depends on the size of your bananas - if your blender is struggling a bit, add some more.  I used about 1/2 cup plus 1 or 2 Tablespoons of coconut butter today.

You can also play around with adding other things - an avocado, raspberries, dark cherries, etc... once you get the base down, it is very flexible!

Actually, I made this yesterday, and we had four small bowls of raw vegan chocolate mousse.  Then I poured the extra into the pie tray, and froze overnight.  This morning I took it out and added the berries around 11am, and we ate it around 3pm.  It was gone by about 3:30pm!
