If you’re a fan of avocados, you may have already tried them in all sorts of ways – from guacamole to avocado toast. But have you ever thought about incorporating this nutrient-packed fruit into a dessert? Believe it or not, avocados can be used to create a creamy and healthy dessert that’s perfect for summer parties or for a weeknight treat.

Here’s an easy recipe that you can prepare in just a few minutes – avocado chocolate mousse.

Ingredients
1 ripe avocado
1/2 cup unsweetened cocoa powder
1/2 cup pure maple syrup
1/2 teaspoon vanilla extract
1/4 teaspoon sea salt
1/4 cup unsweetened almond milk

Instructions
1. Begin by scooping the avocado meat into the bowl of a food processor or blender. If the avocado is still hard, you can speed up the ripening process by placing it in a brown paper bag with an apple or banana for a day or two.
2. Add the cocoa powder, pure maple syrup, vanilla extract, and sea salt to the bowl, and blend the ingredients until they are well combined.
3. Scrape down the sides of the bowl with a spatula, then gradually pour in the almond milk while continuing to blend. Add just enough almond milk to achieve a smooth and creamy consistency.
4. Once the mixture is completely smooth, taste and adjust the sweetness if needed.
5. Transfer the mousse to individual serving dishes or ramekins, and chill them in the refrigerator for at least two hours before serving.
6. Top each serving with a dollop of whipped cream, shaved chocolate or chopped nuts if desired. Enjoy your delicious and healthy avocado chocolate mousse!

Variations:
If you’d like to mix it up a bit, here are a few variations you can try:

– Peanut Butter Chocolate Avocado Mousse: Add 1/2 cup of creamy peanut butter to the mousse mixture and blend until smooth. Top with chopped roasted peanuts.
– Mint Chocolate Avocado Mousse: Add 1/2 teaspoon of mint extract and a few drops of green food coloring to the mousse mixture before blending.
– Berry Avocado Mousse: Blend 1/2 cup of fresh or frozen berries (such as raspberries, blueberries or strawberries) into the mousse before chilling.

In summary, preparing a dessert based on avocado can be both healthy and delicious. Avocado chocolate mousse is a great option for those who crave something sweet but want to avoid overly processed or high-calorie treats. It takes just a handful of ingredients and a few minutes of hands-on time, making it a perfect recipe for beginner cooks. Try it out and see how simple and tasty this mousse can be!
