Easy Peasy, 4 step, Vegan Chocolate Mousse Tart. This tart is worthy of a place on the Christmas table 🎄😋 It can be made a day in advance, served chilled and tastes amazing while still being full of healthy ingredients like almonds, oats, raw cacao, dates, coconut cream and even roasted butternut squash which is it’s secret ingredient because nobody would ever guess it’s in there 😉🤫
You need a 23cm tart tin and a food processor for this recipe. You will also need 230g of pre-roasted Butternut Squash. It’s handy to do a vegetable roasting session 1x per week when you fill your oven with butternut squash, cauliflower, sweet potatoes etc to use during the week.
And here’s the recipe! I hope you love it as much as we do!
