Boba Mint Chocolate Mousse. Smooth, creamy, rich, vegan mint chocolate mousse with chewy brown sugar bobas. Totally indulgent and very easy to make. Made with just 7 ingredients with minimal steps! This recipe is dairy-free.
I absolutely love fresh mint chocolate mousse. It is something I really cannot resist and I could probably eat it for breakfast, lunch or dinner if nutrition didn't matter at all! But when you add a little bit of peppermint to chocolate mousse, it is PURE heaven. That chocolatey melt-in-your-mouth texture with the uplifting taste of mint is unlike any other!
If you're not a mint fan or bobas
Feel free to omit it! If you're not a fan of bobas, omit that too! This french mint mousse recipe alone is so amazing and totally worth making.
Very easy to make
Despite how elegant this dessert looks, this boba mint chocolate mousse recipe is VERY easy to make. Preparation time for the mousse only takes 10 minutes and it just requires you to weigh your ingredients, mix, boil and pour into a cup/mould and refrigerate overnight or 3-4 hours. However, if you're truly impatient like me you could let it set for 1 hour in the fridge and have it very creamy and soft.
The bobas take 40 minutes and it is optional too!
How do you firm up chocolate mousse?
For my recipe, I'm using agar agar powder which is a vegan way to firm up chocolate mousse. It's totally fool proof as long as you bring the mixture to a boil for 1 minutes to activate the agar agar powder.
Why is my mousse runny?
If you made my recipe and it's too runny, then I would suggest melting the mousse again in a pot and reboiling it. The reason why it could be runny is because you didn't boil it for 1 minute to activate the agar agar powder to firm up.
Great for guests or hosting
This is boba dark chocolate mint mousse is a great dessert to make for guests because it's incredibly easy. It's fail proof as long as you let the mixture come to a boil to activate the agar agar powder. You can make the mint and chocolate mousse ahead and make the bobas the same day or they will lose their chewiness unless you re-boil them again.
I hope you enjoy this delicious dairy-free easy mint chocolate mousse with bobas! It's totally irresistible, I promise!
