Method:

  • Make the paleo caramel sauce according to its directions. Pour the caramel (saving about 1-2 tablespoons) into six small jars and set aside.
  • For the mousse, place the coconut milk in a medium pot and heat over medium high heat. Once hot, add the chopped chocolate, cacao powder and vanilla. Whisk to combine.
  • Once the chocolate is melted, add the agar-agar and bring to a boil. Once boiling, reduce heat to a simmer and whisk until dissolved.
  • Top the caramel with the mousse. Refrigerate until set, about 3-4 hours.
  • To serve, top with coconut whipped cream, shaved chocolate, extra caramel sauce and an additional sprinkle of habanero salt.
