• 15 oz can full-fat unsweetened coconut milk
• 4 tbsp powdered sugar
• ½ tsp vanilla extract
• 3-4 tbsp unsweetened dark chocolate cocoa powder
• Toppings of your choice (cocoa, fresh fruit, shredded coconut)

1. Chill can of coconut milk in the refrigerator for at least 24 hours.
2. Place a medium sized bowl into the freezer to chill for 5 minutes.
3. Remove the canned coconut milk from the refrigerator and slowly turn it upside down, then open the can and carefully pour the liquid coconut milk out into a separate vessel until the hardened coconut milk is all that is left in the can (the liquid will not be used for this recipe).
4. Scoop the hardened coconut milk into the chilled bowl.
5. Beat until fluffy with an electric hand mixer. Start at a low speed and increase to higher speed until stiff peaks start to form.
6. Add the sweetener, vanilla extract, and cocoa powder, and continue to beat until a mousse texture is achieved.
7. Add the toppings of your choice. Serves 2.
