INGREDIENTS:

• 1 cup soaked cashews (3 hours)
• Half cup full-fat coconut cream
• Quarter cup maple syrup
• 2 tbsp lemon juice
• 1 tsp vanilla extract
• Quarter tsp salt

INGREDIENT NOTES:

CASHEWS:

• We use the soaked cashews for this recipe and blend them for creaminess. In vegan cheesecakes, we usually use cashews for the filling, and we will do the same for this dessert as well. If you require an alternative, you may use sunflower seeds or almonds and soak them.

FULL-FAT COCONUT CREAM:

• For this vegan dessert, we will be using full-fat coconut cream to make the mousse rich. It will also make it soft enough. Other than this, this cream will include healthy fats in the dessert. Another option for this can be thick soy cream.

MAPLE SYRUP:

• This is what makes the mousse sweet, and this product can mix into the mousse easily. Date syrup will also work fine for this.

LEMON JUICE:

• This is helpful in excluding the extra-sweet flavors in the mousse. It will also add a bit of tangy flavor. Lime juice is an option to use when lemon juice is not present.

VANILLA EXTRACT:

• Vanilla will improve the taste of the dessert and make it better. Use the vanilla powder as an alternative option for this.

SALT:

• Using salt can improve the taste of the mousse. You can consider the omission of it, but the taste will not be much better.

INSTRUCTIONS:

1. After the soaking of the cashews for 3 hours, drain them properly.
2. Take a blender and add the cashews to it.
3. Place the rest of the products inside the blender as well.
4. You need to blend the complete mixture to make it smooth enough.
5. Taste the mousse first and include more sweetness if you want to.
6. Start placing the mousse inside the serving bowls.
7. You can refrigerate the mousse for 30 minutes if you require a bit of solid mousse.

SERVING SUGGESTIONS:

• Topping suggestions can include berries or crushed vegan biscuits.
• Another idea can include slices of mango and banana.
• Spread some chocolate syrup on top of the mousse to give it a nice look.
• Chop some nuts of your choice and spread them on top of the mousse for decoration.

TIPS:

• Do not skip the soaking of the cashews for a smooth mousse.
• Make sure to utilize full-fat coconut cream for the best consistency of the dessert.
• Blending time should be around 2 minutes for the mousse.
• Refrigerating is a better option for the mousse to taste even better than before.
• Since the mousse residue can dry in moments, you should wash the blender after preparing the dessert.
