Date and Chocolate Mousse

Date and chocolate mousse - vegan friendly.

For those festive days when we celebrate with chocolate, I leave here a 3-ingredient mousse recipe, with no added sugar. It’s so creamy and rich. It was our dessert on last Christmas Day, done by my sister. This recipe is also vegan friendly.
