Eggless Vegan Dark Chocolate Mousse with Toasted Almonds

Deep, dark chocolate melts down with coconut oil into a glossy base, then gets lifted by whipped aquafaba until it's airy, glossy, and cloud-light — the same whipping technique that makes classic mousse work, minus anything from a shell. A touch of vanilla and sea salt rounds out the flavor, while cane sugar gives the whip its structure and shine. Once it's chilled into individual glasses for a couple of hours, the texture sets into something rich and spoonable, not eggy or dense. Toasted almonds scattered over the top add crunch and a nutty contrast to all that deep cocoa, and a final pinch of flaky salt makes the whole thing taste even more chocolatey. It's a genuinely elegant dessert to make when you're keeping things egg free, and nothing about the texture or richness gives it away.
