Receta Chocolate - Butterscotch Mousse Parfait
One of my favorite dessert recipes ever! I make so many different variations of this and rarely ever measure. The recipe below is just a base, but you can make this in almost any flavor using extracts and things like mesquite, lucuma, macca, fruit, etc. This is one of my favorite combinations, hwoever. I hope you enjoy it too!
Sorry for the poor pic, but this did not last long enough to get my camera out!

Directions

Add chia and sea salt, and more water if needed. Mixture will thicken when chilled, but should be pretty thick at this point. If not, add more chia. Coconut water really enhances the flavor of this recipe, so if you are lucky enough to find them...bonus for you! Otherwise, use water...it will still be yummy!
Pour half of of Butterscotch mixture into parfait or glass jars.
To remaining mixture add, cacao powder, nibs and a little more sweetener if needed. (Cacao will make it a bit bitter). Pour this mixture over Butterscotch or alternate more layers as desired)..
Garnish with chopped nuts, coconut, and/or grated cacao nibs. Chill for at least 30 min, and serve.
