Decadent Dark Chocolate Avocado Mousse

Today, I’m excited to share with you a recipe for a decadent and guilt-free dessert that’s perfect for any occasion. This Dark Chocolate Avocado Mousse is rich, creamy, and surprisingly healthy, thanks to the secret ingredient of avocado. It’s a dessert that will impress your guests and satisfy your sweet tooth without any guilt.

Ingredients:

  • 2 ripe avocados (about 400g)
  • 200g dark chocolate, chopped
  • 2 tbsp cocoa powder
  • 1 tsp vanilla extract
  • 4 tbsp maple syrup
  • 1/2 cup coconut milk
  • Pinch of sea salt

Kitchen Tools:

  • food processor
  • saucepan
  • spatula
  • ramekins

To start, peel and pit the avocados and place them in a food processor. In a saucepan, heat the coconut milk until warm but not boiling, then pour it over the chopped dark chocolate in a heatproof bowl. Stir until the chocolate is melted and smooth. Add the melted chocolate mixture, cocoa powder, vanilla extract, maple syrup, and a pinch of sea salt to the avocados in the food processor.

Blend everything until smooth and creamy, scraping down the sides of the food processor as needed. Divide the mousse into ramekins and refrigerate for at least 2 hours to set. You can also top the mousse with whipped coconut cream or fresh berries before serving, if desired.

This Dark Chocolate Avocado Mousse has a total weight of about 800g once cooked, making approximately 4 servings. Each serving is around 200g, with an estimated calorie count of 250 per serving.

Tip:

To enhance the chocolate flavor of the mousse, you can sprinkle some finely grated dark chocolate on top before serving. It adds a beautiful finishing touch and an extra burst of chocolate goodness.

I hope you enjoy making and indulging in this Decadent Dark Chocolate Avocado Mousse. It’s a unique and healthier dessert option that’s sure to impress your friends and family. Feel free to experiment with different toppings or add-ins to make it your own!
