Raw Chocolate Mousse Tarts
Don't you get a smug sense of satisfaction when you eat a dessert that tastes great, isn't made using processed ingredients, AND is packed full of things that are actually good for you? I sure do, and you just can't wipe that smug grin off my cacao stained face. I hope you enjoy my Raw Chocolate Mousse Tarts are much as I do, which are vegan, refined sugar free, raw and gluten free. The base is made using nuts, dried fruit and coconut, the filling is a delicious banana and avocado mousse, and the topping is a simple whipped coconut cream. Easy, healthy and delightful.
