This dessert recipe is a lighter alternative to most desserts but still feels indulgent and decadent. I love this mousse as a solo treat with fresh berries or as a delightful finale to a special meal. It’s incredibly easy to make and the perfect make-ahead treat. A few other chocolate reader favorite recipes include this Chocolate Molten Cake, my Chocolate Tart with Oreo Crust, and this Double Chocolate Zucchini Bread.

Pudding is traditionally cooked with milk and sugar and thickened with cornstarch. Mousse starts with a base similar to pudding, minus the cornstarch, in which beaten cream or egg whites are folded. I used coconut milk instead of heavy cream or egg whites to make it healthier. How they are different: They differ in how the pudding and mousse are thickened and in their textures. Pudding is semisolid and dense, while mousse has a lighter, airier texture.
I hope you love this one!
