⅓ cup sugar


½ cup cornstarch


1 tsp ground turmeric

    ries, and coconut milk. Let
    sit for 5 minutes to thaw
    slightly, then pulse until
    smooth, about 6 minutes,
    stopping once a minute to
    scrape down sides and stir.

  2. Tr a n s f e r t o a 4 ½ - b y -
    8½-inch loaf pan. Cover
    and freeze until firm,
    at least 2 hours and up

1½ cups rolled oats


½ cup coconut chips


4 oz vegan chocolate,
melted

2 Tbsp coconut oil,

2 tsp maple syrup


1 Tbsp lime zest,

  1. Heat oven to 4 00°F.
    Toss oats and coconut on
    a rimmed baking sheet
    and roast until golden
    brown, about 5 minutes.
    Toss with chocolate and
    1 Tbsp oil.

  2. Divide mixture among
    the cups of a 12-cup muffin
    tin (about 2 Tbsp each),
    pressing it in (use the bot-
    tom of a glass to help flat-
    ten); freeze until firm,
    about 25 minutes.

  3. Meanwhile, whisk to-
    gether peanut butter, syr-
    up, zest, and remaining
    Tbsp coconut oil. Spoon

SERVES 6


14-oz can coconut milk
(do not shake)

1 cup mashed avocado
(from about 2
Hass avocados)

8 oz bittersweet
vegan chocolate,
melted

2 Tbsp maple syrup


15-oz can chickpeas


½ cup confectioners’
sugar

½ tsp cream of tartar


1 tsp pure vanilla
extract

unsweetened
cocoa powder,
for serving


  1. Scrape ½ cup coconut
    cream (the solidified
    top in a can of coconut
    milk) into a blender. Save
    liquid for another use.
    Add avocado, chocolate,
    and syrup and puree
    until smooth. Transfer
    to glasses and refrigerate
    until chilled.

  2. Meanwhile, prepare
    “fluff”: Drain chickpea
    liquid into the bowl
    of a stand mixer
    (reserve chickpeas
    for another use).

  3. Add sugar and, using
    the whisk attachment,
    mix on medium until
    white and foamy. Add
    cream of tartar and
    vanilla, increase to
    medium-high, and beat
    until stiff peaks form.

  4. Serve mousse with a
    dollop of fluff. Dust with

SECRET STAR
Silken Tofu
Its creamy, custard-
like texture and mild
fl avor make it an ide al
egg substitute in
dense treats, like this
velvety curd filling.

SECRET STAR
Vegan Chocolate
Many bars contain
trac e s of milk , so it ’s
best to look for one
that’s labeled “vegan.”

SECRET STAR
Coconut Milk
Thanks to it s higher fat
content, this alterna-
tive milk works wonders
in lieu of heavy cream,
adding richne s s to ic e
creams and sorbets.

SECRET STAR
Chickpea Brine
The liquid from
canned chickpeas
(a.k.a. “aquafaba”)
whips up just like
standard egg whites.
