Decadent Chocolate Avocado Mousse 🍫🥑
Servings: 4
INGREDIENTS
- 2 ripe avocados, peeled and pitted
- 1/3 cup unsweetened cocoa powder
- 1/3 cup maple syrup (adjust for sweetness)
- 1/4 cup unsweetened almond milk (or milk of choice)
- 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
- Pinch of salt
- Optional toppings: Fresh berries, coconut whipped cream, chopped nuts, or shaved dark chocolate
INSTRUCTIONS
- Blend the Base: In a food processor or high-speed blender, combine avocados, cocoa powder, maple syrup, almond milk, vanilla extract, and salt.
- Blend Until Smooth: Blend until the mixture is completely smooth and creamy. Scrape down the sides as needed to ensure all ingredients are fully incorporated.
- Adjust Sweetness and Consistency: Taste the mousse and adjust sweetness with more maple syrup if desired. If it's too thick, add a little more almond milk, one tablespoon at a time, until you reach your desired consistency.
- Chill: Transfer the mousse to serving dishes or ramekins. Cover and refrigerate for at least 1 hour to allow the flavors to meld and the mousse to firm up.
- Serve: Top with your favorite garnishes, such as fresh berries, coconut whipped cream, or a sprinkle of chopped nuts.
This dessert is indulgent yet nutritious—perfect for satisfying your sweet tooth without the guilt. 🍫🥑✨
