Vegan Chocolate Mousse Cake

by 22 Comments

This Vegan Chocolate Mousse Cake is such a dark, chocolaty decadent dessert that it’s hard to believe it’s butter, egg, and cream-free. It starts with a moist, tender dark chocolate cake, and it’s topped with a luscious, rich chocolate mousse. It’s the perfect lighter treat for Valentine’s Day.

Doesn’t it seem like a cruel joke that right when I’m starting to get in the stride of eating healthier for the New Year, Valentine’s Day just pops up. Then all of a sudden it’s chocolate. Chocolate everywhere.

Instead of letting it derail me completely, I’m lightening up a chocolate treat that’s satisfying and full of deep, rich chocolate flavor. The recipe for this Vegan Chocolate Mousse Cake is part of a wonderful eating healthy initiative called #EatHealhty16.

    • Thanks Tara! The recipe is so easy that it’s dangerous. I’ve never made a chocolate mousse that was this delicious and easy. It’s instant gratification 🙂

  14. This chocolate mousse cake is blowing my mind–it looks so amazing! I am totally going to make this cake for my bestie for her birthday–she has a vegan diet, so I know she will appreciate the extra effort from me. Thanks for sharing the recipe from Melrose Family–going to check out her site now!

    • Thanks so much, Cathy! Just a few short years ago finding a vegan recipe was so tough (and often called for strange ingredients). Now it’s so much easier! I hope you give it a try. I think your vegan and non-vegan friends will love it!
