Ingredients
Scale
- 2 large ripe avocados, peeled and pitted
- 1/4 cup cocoa powder, unsweetened
- 1/3 cup coconut cream
- 1/4 cup maple syrup or honey (depending on preference)
- 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
- 1 cup dark chocolate, melted and slightly cooled
Instructions
- Prepare Your Ingredients: Begin by melting the dark chocolate. Place it in a heatproof bowl over a pot of simmering water, ensuring the water doesn’t touch the bottom of the bowl. Once melted, let the chocolate cool slightly.
- Blend It All Together: In a food processor or high-powered blender, combine the avocados, cocoa powder, coconut cream, maple syrup, and vanilla extract. Blend until smooth, stopping to scrape down the sides as needed. Slowly pour in the melted chocolate while blending until well-combined and smooth.
- Chill and Serve: Spoon the smooth mousse into serving glasses or bowls. Let it chill in the refrigerator for at least 30 minutes before serving to allow it to set and thicken.
