DAIRY-FREE DARK CHOCOLATE Peppermint Mousse

INGREDIENTS
8 oz. filtered water
10 oz. bittersweet
(70%) chocolate, chopped
1 tablespoon Yacon Syrup (optional)
3–4 drops Peppermint
Vitality™ essential oil
Ice and water for ice bath

INSTRUCTIONS
• Place enough water and ice into a large (preferably
stainless steel) mixing bowl to cover the bottom and
nestle a slightly smaller bowl inside to create an ice
bath. Set aside.
• Bring the filtered water to a boil in a saucepan,
turn off heat, add the Yacon Syrup and chopped
chocolate, and whisk until melted and smooth. Add
Peppermint Vitality essential oil and whisk again.
• Pour the melted chocolate into the mixing bowl
sitting on top of the ice bath and whisk vigorously
until mixture becomes thick and ribbon-like. If you
over mix your mousse, it will become grainy. If this
happens, add more chopped chocolate to mixture,
melt over the heat, and whisk again until thick and
ribbon-like.
• Spoon mousse into serving cups to serve or cover and
refrigerate to firm.
