Coconut Chocolate Mousse

This mousse is dreamy, creamy and easy to make.  I love eating such a delicious treat and feeling goood about what I'm putting into my body.

You will only need 3 ingredients and ideally a Vitamix. You can try using a regular blender or food processor it just may not come out as creamy cuz the Vitamix is the BOMB!!

Ingredients:

1-2 young Thai coconuts ( you can usually find in Wholefoods or Chinatown or if you're lucky straight off the tree! )

water from coconuts, enough to create desired consistency

1 organic dark chocolate bar ( you can also try raw cacao powder & agave syrup to taste)

Directions:

1. Carefully make a small opening in the top of the young coconut.  My friend Ja used a machete style knife and hacked a small square shape in the top, then poked it through to create an opening. If you can't do this  outside, try on a wooden cutting board. Empty out water into cup for later use. Once water is emptied, split coconut in half and scoop out soft meat. Place in Vitamix, food processor or regular blender.

2. Melt 1/2 to 1 organic dark chocolate bar on low in a saucepan. Add to mixer.

3. Add half the amount of coconut water and proceed to blend. Add more to create desired consistency.

4. You can decorate with fresh fruit and shredded coconut to make a fancy dessert presentation ;-)
