Decadent Chocolate Avocado Mousse: A guilt-free dessert delight

Today’s Special: Guilt-Free Chocolate Avocado Mousse

As the weather warms up and my sweet tooth starts calling, I find myself searching for healthier dessert options to satisfy my cravings. That’s why I’m excited to share my latest creation with you today: a decadent, yet guilt-free Chocolate Avocado Mousse. This creamy dessert is not only delicious but also packed with nutrients from the avocado base.

To whip up this indulgent treat, you’ll need the following ingredients:

• 2 ripe avocados (about 400g)
• 1/2 cup of cocoa powder (50g)
• 1/4 cup of maple syrup (60ml)
• 1 teaspoon of vanilla extract
• 1/2 cup of coconut milk (120ml)
• A pinch of sea salt
• Fresh berries for garnish

To prepare this luscious dessert, you’ll need the following kitchen tools:

• food processor
• spatula
• mixing bowl
• ramekins

Start by scooping out the flesh of the ripe avocados into a food processor. Add in the cocoa powder, maple syrup, vanilla extract, coconut milk, and a pinch of sea salt. Blend everything until smooth and creamy, scraping down the sides of the food processor as needed.

Once your mousse is silky and uniform in texture, transfer it to a mixing bowl. Divide the mousse into individual ramekins and refrigerate for at least 30 minutes to let it set. When ready to serve, top with fresh berries for a pop of color and extra freshness.

The total weight of this Chocolate Avocado Mousse comes out to approximately 600g, with enough servings to make 4. Each serving weighs around 150g and packs a mere 200 calories, making it a guilt-free dessert option that won’t weigh you down.

One clever tip to enhance the flavor of this mousse is to sprinkle a touch of flaky sea salt on top just before serving. The saltiness will elevate the chocolatey richness and add an exciting contrast of flavors to each spoonful.

I hope you give this Chocolate Avocado Mousse a try and enjoy it as much as I do. Feel free to experiment with different toppings or add-ins to make this dessert your own. Happy indulging!
