Preparation

Step 1

Directions
Active time: 20 minutes
Total time: 6 hours 20 minutes

Heat chocolate in a double boiler (or microwave in 10-second intervals, stirring between each) until melted; let cool. In a large bowl, combine aquafaba, salt and cream of tartar. Using a stand or electric mixer, whip until mixture forms soft peaks. Gradually mix in sugar. Using a rubber spatula, fold in cooled melted chocolate, rum (if using) and vanilla extract until evenly combined. Spoon mousse into 6 dessert dishes or parfait glasses. Chill for at least 6 hours before serving. Top with whipped coconut cream (or regular whipped cream for nonvegans) and chocolate shavings or cacao nibs.
