Ingredients
  

  • 2 ripe avocados
  • 3 tablespoons unsweetened cocoa powder
  • 2 –3 tablespoons pure maple syrup or keto sweetener like monk fruit or stevia
  • 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
  • 1 –2 tablespoons almond milk or any plant-based milk
  • A pinch of sea salt
Optional toppings:
  • Coconut whipped cream
  • Fresh raspberries or strawberries
  • Shaved dark chocolate
  • Crushed nuts almonds, walnuts, or pecans

Method
 

Step 1: Prepare the Avocados
  1. Cut the avocados in half, remove the pits, and scoop the flesh into a blender or food processor.
Step 2: Add the Ingredients
  1. Add cocoa powder, vanilla extract, maple syrup, and a pinch of sea salt to the blender.
Step 3: Blend Until Smooth
  1. Blend everything until it’s thick and creamy. Stop once or twice to scrape down the sides so everything mixes evenly.
Step 4: Adjust the Texture
  1. If the mousse feels too thick, add 1–2 tablespoons of almond milk and blend again until smooth and silky.
Step 5: Taste and Adjust
  1. Taste it. Add more cocoa for stronger chocolate flavor or more sweetener if you like it sweeter.
Step 6: Chill It
  1. Spoon the mousse into bowls or small cups and refrigerate for at least 30 minutes. This helps the texture firm up.
Step 7: Serve and Enjoy
  1. Top with coconut whipped cream, berries, or dark chocolate shavings before serving. Serve cold and enjoy the creamy, rich flavor.

Notes

  • Use fully ripe avocados for the best texture. Underripe ones will make the mousse lumpy.
  • This mousse keeps well in the fridge for up to 2 days. Cover tightly to prevent browning.
  • You can use this as a frosting on cakes or cupcakes — just chill it longer for a thicker consistency.
  • Add a tiny shot of espresso for a deeper chocolate flavor (optional but amazing).
