A delicious recipe for Dairy-Free Chocolate Mousse - perfect for hosting and entertaining, or a sweet treat enjoyed at home!
Combine the chocolate and non-dairy milk (I like to use almond milk) in a double boiler or small saucepan. Stir until the chocolate is completely melted and smooth. Remove from heat and let cool.
In a clean, dry bowl of a stand mixer fitted with a whisk attachment*, combine egg whites and salt. Whip on medium-high until stiff peaks form, about 4-5 minutes.
Add the egg yolks, vanilla extract and cayenne pepper into the chocolate mixture, stirring to combine. Add ⅓ of the egg whites to the bowl with the chocolate mixture and fold, scraping around the edges of the bowl. This will make it easier to incorporate the remaining egg whites. Gently fold in the remaining egg whites. Add cacao nibs during the last of your folding.
Divide the mixture among four serving glasses, bowls or ramekins. Cover with plastic wrap and chill for at least 2 hours. When ready to serve, remove the plastic wrap, top with dairy-free whipped cream, fresh berries, and chocolate shavings.
