Chocolate Avocado Mousse with Candied Jalapeños Recipe

Today, I’m excited to share a unique and indulgent dessert recipe that combines the creamy richness of avocado with the decadent sweetness of chocolate. This Chocolate Avocado Mousse with Candied Jalapeños is a perfect balance of flavors and textures that will surely surprise and delight your taste buds.

For this recipe, you will need the following ingredients:

  • 2 ripe avocados (about 400g)
  • 100g dark chocolate
  • 2 tablespoons cocoa powder
  • 4 tablespoons maple syrup
  • 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
  • candied jalapeños for garnish

To prepare this delicious dessert, you will need the following kitchen tools:

  • food processor
  • microwave
  • mixing bowl
  • whisk

Start by melting the dark chocolate in a microwave-safe bowl, stirring every 30 seconds until smooth. In the food processor, blend the ripe avocados, melted chocolate, cocoa powder, maple syrup, and vanilla extract until creamy and well combined.

Transfer the mousse to individual serving dishes and chill in the refrigerator for at least 30 minutes to set. Before serving, garnish each portion with a few slices of candied jalapeños for a unique and spicy kick.

The total weight of the cooked dish is approximately 600g, with around 4 servings. Each serving weighs about 150g, with an estimated calorie count of 250 per serving.

One tip to make this dessert even more delicious is to sprinkle some sea salt on top right before serving. The hint of salt enhances the sweetness of the chocolate and adds another dimension of flavor to the dish.

I encourage you to try this Chocolate Avocado Mousse with Candied Jalapeños and experiment with different toppings or spices to make it your own. Enjoy the unique combination of creamy avocado, rich chocolate, and spicy jalapeños in every bite!
