Ingredients
- 60 g Pitted dates
- 30 ml Warm water
- 250 g Thick Greek yogurt
- 12 g Cocoa powder
- 1 tsp Alcohol-free vanilla
- 8 g Shelled pistachios, chopped
Method
- 1
This mousse is best made a little ahead so it can chill and set. It is entirely no-cook, just softening the dates, blending and folding.
- 2
Cover 60g of pitted dates with 30ml of warm water and leave for 10 minutes to soften, then mash or blend to a smooth sticky paste.
- 3
Whisk 250g of thick Greek yogurt in a bowl for a minute until light and airy. Sift in 12g of cocoa powder and add 1 teaspoon of alcohol-free vanilla.
- 4
Gently fold the date paste through the cocoa yogurt until evenly marbled, keeping as much air as you can. Spoon into two glasses.
- 5
Leave in the fridge for about 20 minutes to firm up and let the flavours settle. Scatter with the chopped pistachios just before serving.
