Ingredients
  

  • 1.5 cup whole milk greek yogurt
  • 3 tbsp peanut butter smooth, unsweetened
  • 3 tbsp unsweetened cocoa powder sifted
  • 2 tbsp honey
  • 0.5 cup heavy cream
  • 1 tsp vanilla extract

Method
 

  1. Whisk the cocoa powder with the honey, peanut butter and vanilla into a smooth, glossy paste. Working the cocoa into the honey and peanut butter first is what keeps it from clumping when the yogurt joins it.
  2. Whisk the Greek yogurt into the cocoa paste until the mixture is completely smooth and evenly dark, with no pale streaks.
  3. In a separate cold bowl, whip the heavy cream to soft peaks.
  4. Fold a third of the whipped cream into the chocolate base to loosen it, then fold in the rest gently until no streaks remain. Fold, do not stir, so the mousse stays light.
  5. Spoon into four small glasses or cups and chill at least 1 hour to set. Top with a small swirl of peanut butter just before serving if you like.
