Chocolate Avocado Mousse Raspberries (Printable version)

A creamy chocolate mousse featuring ripe avocados and fresh raspberries for a rich and fresh taste.

# List of ingredients:

01 - 2 ripe avocados, peeled and pitted

02 - 1/3 cup unsweetened cocoa powder

03 - 1/4 cup maple syrup or honey

04 - 1/4 cup almond milk or milk of choice

05 - 1 teaspoon vanilla extract

06 - Pinch of sea salt

07 - 1 cup fresh raspberries

08 - 1 tablespoon dark chocolate shavings or cacao nibs (optional)

09 - Fresh mint leaves for garnish (optional)

01 - Place avocados, cocoa powder, maple syrup, almond milk, vanilla extract, and sea salt into a food processor or blender.

02 - Blend until the mixture is completely smooth and creamy, scraping down the sides as needed. Adjust sweetness to taste if desired.

03 - Divide the mousse evenly among 4 serving glasses or bowls.

04 - Refrigerate for at least 30 minutes to improve texture (optional but recommended).

05 - Just prior to serving, garnish each portion with fresh raspberries, optional dark chocolate shavings, and mint leaves if using.

01 -

It comes together in minutes with no oven, no stovetop, and no cleanup beyond rinsing a blender.
The mousse tastes intensely chocolatey while sneaking in healthy fats and fiber you actually feel good about eating.

02 -

If your avocados have any brown spots inside, scoop them out completely or the mousse will taste bitter and look streaky.
Dont over blend or the mixture heats up slightly and loses that cool creamy texture, stop as soon as its smooth.

03 -

Use a high speed blender instead of a food processor if you want the absolute silkiest texture with zero graininess.
Chill your serving glasses in the freezer for ten minutes before filling them so the mousse stays cold longer and feels extra refreshing.
