Decadent Chocolate Avocado Mousse: A Healthy Sweet Indulgence

Indulgent Chocolate Avocado Mousse

As the weather starts to warm up, I find myself craving lighter, more refreshing desserts. Today, I’m excited to share a recipe for an indulgent chocolate avocado mousse that is not only decadent but also incredibly healthy. This dessert is perfect for satisfying your sweet tooth while still keeping things light and fresh.

Ingredients:

• 1 ripe avocado (200g)
• 3 tablespoons cocoa powder (30g)
• 2 tablespoons honey (30g)
• 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
• 1/2 cup coconut milk (120ml)
• 50g dark chocolate, melted
• Pinch of sea salt

Kitchen Tools:

• food processor
• microwave
• spatula
• mixing bowl

To start, scoop out the flesh of the ripe avocado and place it in a food processor. Add in the cocoa powder, honey, vanilla extract, coconut milk, melted dark chocolate, and a pinch of sea salt. Blend everything together until smooth and creamy. The avocado will give the mousse a rich and velvety texture, while the cocoa powder and dark chocolate add a deep, chocolatey flavor.

Once the mousse is smooth, transfer it to a mixing bowl and give it a final stir to ensure everything is well combined. Taste and adjust the sweetness if needed by adding more honey.

Divide the mousse into individual serving glasses and chill in the refrigerator for at least 1 hour to allow the flavors to meld together. You can also top the mousse with shaved chocolate or a sprinkle of sea salt before serving for an extra touch of decadence.

This indulgent chocolate avocado mousse weighs approximately 350g in total and serves 4 people. Each serving is around 87g and contains approximately 200 calories.

One unique tip for this recipe is to sprinkle some chopped pistachios on top of the mousse before serving. The crunch and nuttiness of the pistachios add a lovely contrast to the creamy mousse, making each bite even more satisfying.

I hope you enjoy this indulgent chocolate avocado mousse as much as I do. It’s a healthy and delicious dessert option that will surely become a favorite in your recipe repertoire. Feel free to get creative with your toppings and make this mousse your own!
