Today’s Recipe: Minty Avocado Chocolate Mousse

Hey there, foodies! Today, I’m excited to share a refreshing and healthy dessert recipe with a unique twist. As the temperatures rise, I find myself craving something cool and indulgent, so I’ve come up with a recipe that combines the creamy goodness of avocado with the rich flavor of chocolate for a guilt-free treat. Let’s dive in!

Ingredients:

• 2 ripe avocados (about 400g)
• 3 tbsp cocoa powder
• 1/4 cup fresh mint leaves
• 1/2 cup coconut milk
• 3 tbsp maple syrup
• 1 tsp vanilla extract
• 1/4 tsp sea salt
• 1/4 cup dark chocolate chips

Kitchen Tools:

• food processor
• measuring cups
• spatula
• mixing bowls

To start, scoop out the flesh of the avocados and add them to a food processor. Next, add in the cocoa powder, fresh mint leaves, coconut milk, maple syrup, vanilla extract, and sea salt. Blend everything together until smooth and creamy.

In a small saucepan, melt the dark chocolate chips over low heat, stirring continuously until melted and smooth. Pour the melted chocolate into the avocado mixture and blend again until fully combined.

Transfer the mousse into serving bowls or glasses and refrigerate for at least 1 hour to allow the flavors to meld together. When ready to serve, top each mousse with a few fresh mint leaves for a pop of color and freshness.

This Minty Avocado Chocolate Mousse recipe makes approximately 4 servings, with each serving weighing around 200 grams. One serving is roughly 250 calories, making it a guilt-free and satisfying dessert option.

A unique tip for this recipe is to sprinkle a pinch of flaky sea salt on top of each serving before serving. The salt enhances the flavors of the chocolate and mint, creating a delightful contrast in every bite.

I hope you give this Minty Avocado Chocolate Mousse a try and enjoy its creamy, decadent goodness! Feel free to get creative with your toppings or add-ins to make it your own. Happy cooking!
