RICOTTA COCONUT AND CHOCOLATE MOUSSE, a spoon dessert ready in 5 minutes, easy and quick recipe with a few minutes of bain-marie cooking.
Last night I had a sudden craving for a dessert. I opened the fridge and there it was: fresh ricotta, which is never missing at my house. In the pantry? Shredded coconut and a bar of dark chocolate. And so, this ricotta coconut and chocolate mousse was born, a spoon dessert without cooking that is prepared in 5 minutes and looks like a pastry shop dessert.
I love it because it’s light yet creamy, perfect for a quick after-meal or for a tasty snack. The base is whipped ricotta with powdered sugar, enriched with grated coconut and chocolate flakes: a mix that smells like a tropical vacation!
This quick mousse with ricotta and chocolate is also a great last-minute recipe for unexpected guests: serve it in cups, add a bit of toasted coconut and a few drops of melted chocolate, and you’re done.
The best part? No eggs or whipped cream needed, so it’s a simple and light spoon dessert that always wins over both adults and children. And if you want to go bold, you can also add white chocolate chips or a teaspoon of rum for a more indulgent adult version.
