A simple three ingredient chocolate mousse that you'll want to make again and again...

Ingredients

Chocolate Mousse

270 ml coconut cream
1 block Loving Earth 85% Dark Chocolate
10 drops orange essential oil
Loving Earth Raw Cacao Powder, for serving

Choc-covered Mandarins

3 mandarin, sliced thinly
40g Loving Earth 85% Dark Chocolate

Method

To make the choc covered mandarins, place mandarin slices in a dehydrator and dehydrate for 12 hours.
Melt 40g of Loving Earth Dark Chocolate in a double boiler (a small bowl over a pot of gently simmering water). Dip dried mandarins in the chocolate and place on a tray in the fridge to set.
To make the mousse, gently heat the coconut cream in a small pot over a low heat. Pour into a bowl and toss in the chocolate. Stir until chocolate is melted into the coconut cream and it’s a soft and glossy texture.
Stir in the orange essential oil and place in the fridge to set for 15–30 minutes, depending on the consistency you like and the temperature of where you live!
To serve, top with the prepared mandarin slices, extra squares of Loving Earth Dark Chocolate and a sprinkle of cacao powder.

With thanks to our friends at Loving Earth and the talented Liv Kaplan for the recipe.
