Ingredients
- 2 ripe avocados, peeled and pitted
- 1/4 cup unsweetened cocoa powder
- 3 tablespoons sweetener of choice (such as maple syrup, agave nectar, or honey)
Instructions
- Prepare Ingredients: Gather ripe avocados, cocoa powder, and your preferred sweetener to ensure everything is ready for blending.
- Blend Ingredients: Place the avocados, cocoa powder, and sweetener into a blender or food processor. Blend until the mixture is completely smooth and creamy, scraping down the sides as needed to ensure an even texture.
- Chill the Mousse: Transfer the mousse into serving bowls or glasses. Chill in the refrigerator for at least 30 minutes to allow the flavors to meld and the mousse to firm up slightly.
- Serve Cold: Serve the mousse cold, optionally garnished with fresh berries, mint leaves, or a dusting of cocoa powder for added presentation and flavor.
Notes
- Use ripe avocados for the creamiest texture and richest flavor.
- Adjust sweetness to taste depending on the type of sweetener used.
- For a more intense chocolate flavor, you can add a teaspoon of vanilla extract or a pinch of salt.
- This dessert keeps well in the refrigerator for up to 2 days.
- To make it vegan, choose a plant-based sweetener like maple syrup or agave nectar.
