Today’s Adventurous Eats: Spicy Chocolate Avocado Mousse

Hey there, foodies! Today, I’m excited to share a unique and indulgent dessert recipe perfect for a cozy night in or a special treat. This Spicy Chocolate Avocado Mousse combines unexpected flavors for a creamy, rich, and slightly spicy experience that will tantalize your taste buds.

For this recipe, you’ll need the following ingredients:

  • 2 ripe avocados (about 400g)
  • 100g dark chocolate, chopped
  • 2 tablespoons cocoa powder
  • 3 tablespoons honey
  • 1/4 teaspoon chili powder
  • 1/8 teaspoon cayenne powder
  • 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
  • 1/4 teaspoon salt
  • 1/4 cup almond milk

Make sure you have these kitchen tools ready:

  • blender
  • microwave-safe bowl
  • spatula
  • ramekins or glasses for serving

To start, scoop the flesh of the ripe avocados into a blender. In a microwave-safe bowl, melt the dark chocolate in short intervals, stirring in between, until smooth. Add the melted chocolate to the blender with the avocados. Next, add in the cocoa powder, honey, chili powder, cayenne powder, vanilla extract, salt, and almond milk. Blend everything until smooth and creamy.

Divide the mousse mixture into ramekins or glasses for serving. You can chill them in the fridge for an hour to set, or enjoy them immediately for a more pudding-like consistency. The mousse will have a luscious texture, with a hint of heat from the chili and cayenne powders that beautifully complement the rich chocolate flavor.

Once prepared, the total weight of the Spicy Chocolate Avocado Mousse is approximately 600g. This recipe makes 4 servings, with each serving weighing about 150g. As for the calorie count per serving, it’s estimated to be around 250 calories.

One tip to make this mousse even more delightful is to top it with a sprinkle of sea salt before serving. The salt will enhance the chocolate flavor and add a satisfying crunch to each bite.

I hope you give this Spicy Chocolate Avocado Mousse a try and enjoy the unique combination of flavors! Feel free to experiment by adding your twist, such as a pinch of cinnamon or a dollop of whipped cream on top. Have fun with it and savor every spoonful!
