How to make Chocolate Date Mousse

Tips from the cook

  • Blend until the dates are completely smooth, or you will find chewy bits in the mousse.
  • Soak the dates in warm water for 10 minutes first if they are hard.
  • Stir the chia seeds in well, so they do not clump at the bottom of the jar.
  • Chill for the full 2 hours or overnight, so the chia sets the mousse.
