As the holidays roll around each year I am always coming up with new dessert recipes for my family and friends holiday get-togethers, this year is no different. I like to think out of the box and not stick to the usual calorie ridden desserts. This year I decided to make Vegan Chocolate Mousse Cups and boy am I glad I did, I mean who doesn’t love chocolate without a billion added calories!? I decided to do a test run on a few family members and friends during Diwali beforehand and they were a HIT! I made them Vegan because I wanted them to be eggless for a few family members yet still taste amazing and that’s exactly what I achieved! Happy Holidays! Hope you guys enjoy and be sure to tag #themommyspice on IG so that I can share your creations!

Instructions
- Chill the can of coconut milk in the refrigerator overnight.
- For best results, place your stand mixer bowl in the refrigerator for 10-30 minutes before you make the chocolate mousse shots, the colder the better!
- Once you're ready to assemble the recipe, remove the bowl and the can of coconut milk from the refrigerator.
- Open the can and skim off the thick cream into the mixing bowl. Reserve the other recipes(Hello Thai Food!)
- Add the cocoa powder, vanilla extract, and powdered sugar to the mixing bowl.
- Mix all ingredients on medium until whipped into a thicker cream the consistency of mousse. If necessary, add more powdered sugar.
- Spoon into double shot glasses, top with your favorite toppings and ENJOY!
