Indulgent & Healthy: Creamy Chocolate Avocado Mousse

Healthy Chocolate Avocado Mousse

Today, I’m excited to share a recipe that’s perfect for satisfying your sweet tooth while still keeping things on the healthier side. This chocolate avocado mousse is creamy, decadent, and packed with nutrients. It’s a great guilt-free dessert option that I love indulging in whenever I’m craving something sweet.

For this recipe, you’ll need:

• 2 ripe avocados (about 400g)
• 1/2 cup cacao powder (about 50g)
• 1/4 cup maple syrup (about 60ml)
• 1/2 cup coconut milk (about 120ml)
• 1 tsp vanilla extract
• Pinch of sea salt
• Fresh berries, for garnish

To make this delicious chocolate avocado mousse, start by scooping the flesh of the avocados into a blender. Add the cacao powder, maple syrup, coconut milk, vanilla extract, and sea salt. Blend everything together until smooth and creamy, scraping down the sides as needed to ensure everything is well incorporated.

Once the mixture is creamy and smooth, divide it into individual serving dishes and refrigerate for at least 1-2 hours to allow it to set.

When you’re ready to serve, top each dish with fresh berries for a pop of color and extra freshness. This chocolate avocado mousse is best enjoyed chilled, straight from the refrigerator.

The approximate total weight of the completed dish is 510 grams, with 4 servings. Each serving weighs around 127.5 grams, with an estimated calorie count of 180 per serving.

One fun tip to make this mousse even creamier is to add a splash of cold brewed coffee to the mixture before blending. It adds a subtle coffee flavor that complements the chocolate beautifully.

I hope you give this healthy chocolate avocado mousse a try and enjoy it as much as I do. Feel free to get creative with your toppings and mix-ins to make it your own!
