Healthy Chocolate Mousse Cake

If you love mousse, and chocolate, then this health chocolate mousse cake is going to make your dreams come true. The texture, the taste, the ingredients, they’re all spot on and the best part is, it’s actually good for you!
If you’ve got a dinner party to attend and have offered to bring a dish, then this is it. It will be hard to find someone who doesn’t fall in love with this cake.

Please note: for the purpose of our photograph, we tripled the mousse filling for a higher cake, because you know, instagram.

This decadent, health chocolate mousse cake is kicking goals. It’s dairy free, gluten free, egg free, low fat, paleo dessert. This dessert is rich in magnesium from cacao, high in vitamin A, C and dietary fibre from sweet potato. A guilt free indulgence.

Be warned though, this cake is so good that it is hard to stop once you start. We may or may not have finished off this cake, in one sitting, with just the two of us.
