Cheats Chocolate Mousse


Chocolate mousse that's light creamy and super delicious, low fat and low in calories, dairy free. If I said this would you believe me??? This chocolate mousse is exactly that, made with  just three ingredients it is a quick dessert that is super delicious and guilt free.

Ingredients:

2 overripe bananas
1 tablespoon unsweetened cocoa
2 teaspoons honey (optional)
4 cherries for garnish.

Method:

1. Peel the bananas and cut them into chunks and place them on a tray in the freezer overnight.
2. The next day place the frozen bananas, cocoa and honey in the Optimum 9400 blend on a low speed , increasing it to fast for 60 seconds.
3. Spoon the mixture into shot glasses and serve immediately or chill and serve later.Garnish with cherries.





To read about the Optimum 9400 check my review post here. The blender is currently on a special offer at £329.00 with a thirty day money back guarantee with free postage if not satisfied. You can order yours here.









NB-This recipe works best with over ripe bananas.

  2. I love this recipe, I usually add a little almond milk when I make it, but it's great, it's like ice cream that's super good for you!

    1. Adding extra liquid made it a little runny which is why I didn't add any additional liquid.
