This is a scrumptious recipe for vegan Chocolate Mousse from our friend, Diana Goldman at Beantown Kitchen. Here she uses maple syrup as an extra sweetener to enrich the flavors of chocolate and vanilla. Diana has a cookbook for plant-based cuisine coming out very soon and we can’t wait to check it out.
