Ingredients

1/4 cup full fat coconut milk
1/2 tsp cornstarch optional

3/4 cup smooth almond butter
1/2 tsp vanilla extract
1/4 tsp cinnamon
1 cup Coco whip or coconut cream

Instructions

Mix coconut milk with cornstarch and sugar and heat in a pan over medium heat until just about a boil. Take off heat and mix well so the sugar is well dissolved. Let it sit for 1 minute. Add the chocolate and let it sit for 1 more minute. Whisk until melted. Wait for the mixture to be warm to touch as some nut butters might separate when mixed in a hot mixture. Add in the almond butter and whisk and whisk until smooth using a hand mixer or whisk.
Add vanilla extract and cinnamon. Fold in the coconut cream and whisk and whip. Add more coconut cream and whip longer for a lighter mousse. Pour the mixture into ramekins. Let them chill for a few hours (this gives a great texture) before serving with a dollop of coco whip or vanilla ice cream.

Notes

Coconut Cream: Chill full fat coconut milk cans overnight. Scoop out the thick hard white cream from the top leaving the liquid to use elsewhere. Use this coconut cream in the recipe in the mousse.
To make whipped cream, whip the chilled coconut cream until light. Add vanilla and sugar and whip again to use immediately.
