Chocolate & Avocado Mousse
This sounds like the weirdest combination ever but it actually works! This vegan/vegetarian friendly dessert is surprisingly easy to prepare and requires just a few ingredients. It’s also a guilt-free treat and the taste of avocado is almost unnoticeable in this dessert!
Ingredients:
- 200g Dark Chocolate
- 1 large ripe Avocado
- 1/3 Cup Full fat milk or 1/3 cup coconut milk
- 1 Tablespoon Cocoa powder
- Sugar or Honey (Optional)
Preparation:
- Melt the dark chocolate in your microwave or in a bowl over boiling water. Stir until all the chocolate is melted. Leave to cool.
- In your blender, scoop the flesh of the avocado, add the milk and cocoa powder. Blend until it forms a smooth and fluffy texture.
- Pour the mixture over the dark chocolate and stir until it is well-combined.
- Add sugar or honey gradually according to your taste. (In my case, I found that I did not need any)
- Pour the chocolate mousse into individual small dessert bowls and store in your fridge for 4 hours or overnight.
