Soft, creamy, naturally sweetened whipped cream with added strawberries to boot!
No sugar, dairy free and luscious? Oh yes.mighty.luscious.
How could you not want to try this over and over and over again? I've been making it OFTEN..........for my kids of course.
This is the basic recipe for the chocoloate mousse, but I excluded the cocoa and added chopped strawberries. Oh the joy! I added some chocolate chips as a special treat for my 3 kiddies and they just loved it and I know you will too!

Strawberry Dairy Free Whipped Cream
[sc:Ziplist]
Ingredients
- 1 can coconut milk
- ¼ tsp. stevia, liquid
- ½ c. strawberries, chopped
Directions
- Open the can of coconut milk and leave it in the refrigerator overnight and uncovered. DO NOT SHAKE THE CAN before opening.
- Spoon out only the cream and leave the water at the bottom of the can, it should be about a cup. You can save the water for a smoothie!
- Add the coconut "cream", strawberries, and stevia to the bowl of a stand mixer and whip on setting 2 for about 5 minutes, scrap the sides of the bowl to make sure its all incorporated.
- That's it! Store uncovered in the fridge and it will continue to thicken!

Hey Brenda, I didn't buy the milk I bought the coconut cream from trader joes. Can I use that instead?
Brenda
I've never bought it like that. You'll have to try it and let me know if it works.

Hi Brenda:
Love trying all your rec.'s My question is, I do not have a stand mixer, can I use a food processor or blender?
Brenda
thanks Rhonda! its worth a shot although I've never tried it. But do you have a hand mixer to beat eggs? you could use it in a bowl but it may take longer.

Will the powdered form ofStevia work? Or does it have to be liquid?

So I only have the Sweet Leaf chocolate in liquid form (the only plain I have is in the packets) I wonder how this would taste sweetened with the chocolate liquid stevia. Guess I will find out! 🙂
Brenda
Its such a small amount needed, but let me know if you taste the chocolate stevia flavor, I'm curious!
Heather
It was good - just a very small hint of chocolate. I just got the Vanilla Creme liquid Stevia in the mail the other day so I am going to try this for dessert tonight with that instead.

Thanks for all the great ideas! You've been a great resource for me as I have to be on a really strict diet due to Lyme disease. I'm getting a whole new perspective on eating! Can you recommend a good stevia brand to use with the coconut milk. The one I used tasted bitter. Thanks!
Brenda
I'm so glad my recipes have helped you! The stevia I recommend is sweetleaf. I don't feel it has any aftertaste at all. If you click on the word stevia in the ingredients for the recipe it will take you directly to where I buy mine. Its from iherb.com and you can purchase through them. Much cheaper than a health food market.

We love the chocolate version so we will have try this version as well. Plus I made your banana blueberry bread again this week as it was such a big hit last week (I found it to get even more moist after a day or two - yum!)
Brenda
I'm so glad!!!! Thanks for letting me know! We like the strawberry version better if you can beleive that!

Brenda
Thanks I hope you love it!
