Ingredients
- 1 lb (3 to 4) apples, (peeled, cored, and diced)
- 1 cup (240ml) roughly chopped pistachios
- 1 cup (8 oz) dark chocolate chips (at least 70% cacao)
- 1 tbsp extra virgin olive oil
Preparation
Not specified
Cooking
- Cook the apples.
- In a medium saucepan, add the apple chunks and about ¼ cup water over medium-high heat.
- Simmer, adjusting the heat as necessary, until the apples are super tender, about 15 minutes.
- Prep the pan.
- While the apples cook, line a loaf pan with parchment paper, leaving the edges out on all sides so you can lift the mousse out of the pan using the sides of the parchment paper.
- Spread the pistachios over the parchment in the bottom of the pan.
- Melt the chocolate.
- Add the chocolate and extra virgin olive oil to a medium heat-safe bowl.
- About 3 to 4 minutes before the apples are ready, place the bowl on top of the saucepan with the apple (you’ll use the steam from the apples to melt the chocolate).
- Stir the chocolate until fully melted and smooth.
- Blend.
- Drain the apples and add them to the bowl of a food processor fitted with an S blade.
- Pour in the melted chocolate.
- Puree until the mixture is smooth; there may still be a bit of texture, which is fine.
- Pour the apple and chocolate mixture into the prepared pan.
- Chill and serve.
- Refrigerate the mixture for at least 3 hours or overnight.
- When the mixture has hardened slightly to a mousse or pudding consistency, it is ready! Carefully remove it from the pan using the parchment paper on both sides.
- Flip it onto a plate and peel the parchment away to serve.
