Holistic Chef Eddie's Tip of the Day #3

9/6/2019

Comments

 
​How about an incredible and easy dessert for today. I know so many of you, me included, love chocolate. Dark chocolate is a great antioxidant. The sad thing is that so many companies and home bakers use sugar to sweeten a dessert. Sugar has empty calories and goes straight to your stomach and hips. I know I can't control my intake and am truly a sugar addict so I have found some great alternatives that are healthy. One is dates. They are naturally sweet. The other is Monkfruit. It has zero calories, zero glycemic and is gluten free, vegan, no additives and is a 1:1 sugar replacement. I love it. I can get a bit crazy and not feel that never ending hunger for more and more sugar. It is sold at your local health food store and has the consistency of sugar. It is made by Lakanto. Monkfruit is also Paleo and Keto friendly.
CHOCOLATE MOUSSE
Pour 4 cans of Coconut Creme (not coconut milk or coconut water) in a high powered blender along with either 15 pitted dates or 1/4 cup Monkfruit sweetener. You may need more sweetener depending on your taste. Add 1/4 cup cocoa powder (unsweetened). This also works for raw foodists when using raw cacao. Add one teaspoon pure vanilla. Blend until smooth. Place in a lovely sherbet glass and refrigerate. The coconut creme will thicken the dessert. Garnish with berries. I love love love this dessert. Enjoy. YUMMMM!!
