This Cold Brew Tahini Mousse combines whipping cream, tahini and cold brew coffee to create this silky smooth dessert recipe.

Thaaaaat’s right! COLD BREW TAHINI MOUSSE. I don’t even know how this combo popped into my brain, but as soon as it did, I knew I had to write it down so I wouldn’t forget. …..that was over a year ago, meaning I waited over a year to create and share this recipe. 

See, I have an entire document filled with recipe ideas, and often times I just pick and choose recipes to create. However, sometimes nothing jumps out at me—when that happens, I start coming up with new ideas. Last week though, I looked over the document very closely, making sure not to skip over anything, and whaddaya know—this cold brew tahini mousse definitely jumped out at me.

Hands down my favorite thing about mousse is the texture. Ohhhhh the silky smooth texture! I love it. Rather than forcing a below average tasting healthier version of this recipe, I opted to simply using whipping cream. BEST DECISION EVER. Because, texture. 

Reasons you need to make this recipe: 

1. It involves tahini, and tahini is TRENDY. It’s also really tasty and good for you sooooo… bonus! 

2. COLD BREW. Need I say more? You can make your own (I love using this tutorial), or you can buy already made cold brew at the store, which is what I did #lazy.

And, if you’re feeling bold, you can add some chopped chocolate on top and—if you have some on hand—a sprinkle of espresso powder. YUM.

    This is not a mousse. This is a whipped cream. It won't stay stable, because it's not a mousse.

      Hi! So yes, typical mousse uses whipping cream AND gelatin, but I don't love baking with gelatin. When I made this mousse, my husband and I ate the first 2 that same day, and then the third one I left in the refrigerator and ate it the next day and the texture was the same--still fluffy.

    Just yesterday morning, as I was eating a piece of chocolate covered Halvah and drinking my coffee, inspiration hit and I wondered why nobody had combined those three flavors before! I determined to rectify that situation, but see that you have beat me to it! Can't wait to try this.

    Oh, my!! I've been wondering what else I can make with my tahini! This looks like a real winner of a recipe. I can't wait to taste it.
