Ingredients
  

For the Peanut Butter Mousse:

  • 1 cup Creamy Peanut Butter 250g
  • 4 Tbs Sugar or Sugar alternative 50g
  • ½ cup Plant Milk 118ml
  • 1 teaspoon Agar Powder
  • ⅓ cup Aquafaba 80ml
  • 1 cup Vegan Whipping Cream 240ml
  • ½ cup Pretzels
  • ½ cup Brownie Chunks

For the Garnishes:

  • ¼ cup Creamy Peanut Butter
  • ¼ Recipe Ganache
  • Pretzels & brownie chunks from reserved layer

Instructions
 

  • First prepare the brownie recipe & bake the batter into 2-7" round pans
    One layer will be the base for the mousse cake & the other will get chunked up for the filling & the topping
  • Prepare your 7" ring mold or springform pan with acetate cake strip then insert one brownie layer into the bottom ~ reserve in the refrigerator & then chop up the other layer into small chunks~ also reserve until you prepare the mousse
  • Next prepare the peanut butter mousse by whipping your aquafaba to stiff glossy peaks, reserve & then whip the vegan whipped cream to medium firm peaks
  • Next in a large mixing bowl slightly melt the peanut butter (either over a double boiler or in the microwave for 20-30 seconds)
  • Combine the plant milk with the sugar (or sugar alternative) with the agar powder in a small sauce pot & bring to a rolling boil whisking often to avoid burning the bottom
  • Pour the hot plant milk mixture into the peanut butter & whisk quickly until smooth, it will tighten up quickly
  • Add 1 cup of the whipped cream & whisk vigorously to lighten the peanut butter mixture then add all of the whipped aquafaba & last add the remaining whipped cream
  • Fold in the chopped pretzels & brownie chunks then pour into your prepared ring mold with the brownie base.
  • Freeze for 1 - 2 hours until completely set then top with the melted ¼ cup of peanut butter & ganache drizzles & remaining pretzels and brownie chunks
  • Refrigerate until serving
