Velvety Chocolate Avocado Mousse: A Decadent Delight

Dessert Delight: Chocolate Avocado Mousse

Hey there, lovely foodies! Today, I’m excited to share a unique and decadent dessert recipe that’s perfect for any occasion. This chocolate avocado mousse is creamy, rich, and surprisingly healthy thanks to the addition of avocado. It’s a perfect treat for indulging without any guilt. Let’s dive into the delicious details!

Ingredients:

• 2 ripe avocados (about 400g)
• 1/2 cup cocoa powder (50g)
• 1/3 cup maple syrup (80ml)
• 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
• 1/2 cup coconut milk (120ml)
• a pinch of salt

Kitchen Tools:

• food processor
• spatula
• measuring cups
• mixing bowl

To start, scoop out the flesh of the ripe avocados and add it to a food processor. Add in the cocoa powder, maple syrup, vanilla extract, coconut milk, and a pinch of salt. Blend everything together until smooth and creamy, scraping down the sides of the food processor as needed.

Once the mousse is velvety and well combined, transfer it to a mixing bowl. Cover it with plastic wrap and refrigerate for at least 30 minutes to allow the flavors to meld together.

When ready to serve, divide the chocolate avocado mousse into individual serving glasses and garnish with a sprinkle of cocoa powder or shaved dark chocolate. The mousse can also be topped with fresh berries or a dollop of coconut whipped cream for an extra touch of indulgence.

This recipe yields approximately 600g of chocolate avocado mousse, enough to serve 4 people. Each serving weighs around 150g and contains an estimated 250 calories.

One clever tip for this recipe is to chill the coconut milk in the refrigerator overnight before using it. This will help the mousse achieve a thicker and creamier consistency.

I hope you enjoy this creamy and luscious chocolate avocado mousse as much as I do! Feel free to get creative with your toppings and make it your own. Happy indulging!
