Easy Milk Chocolate Mousse with Orange
This is magnificent and so easy to adapt to any flavour you like. When we first made this, we couldn’t believe how smooth and elegant the mousse turned out. Just ensure you use chocolate with more than 50% cocoa solids and remember the ratio of 0.75 – for every 1 part chocolate, use 0.75 part infused milk.

Ingredients
- 200 g chocolate (above 50% cocoa solids)
- 150 ml oat milk
- 1 orange (or your favourite tea bag to infuse flavour)
- Ice
Instructions
- Ensure you have 2 metal bowls.
- Pour the oat milk into a saucepan on high heat.
- Add the zest and juice of the orange, bring to a boil, then reduce to a simmer for 2–3 minutes.
- If you don't like oranges, simply leave out the zest and juice and replace them with your favourite tea bag, such as mint or berry.
- Chop the chocolate into small pieces.
- Sieve the infused milk into a measuring jug, ensuring you have exactly 150 ml.
- Add the boiling hot infused milk to the chocolate and whisk until it is all dissolved, creating a chocolate milk.
- Place ice into the second metal bowl and set the bowl with the chocolate mixture on top of the ice bath.
- Whisk for 3–5 minutes until it starts to thicken and become a wonderful chocolate mousse.
- Serve with vegan cream and some sliced chocolate on top!
