📝 Ingredients

2 ripe medium avocados, pitted and scooped out
1/2 cup unsweetened cocoa powder or cacao powder
1/4 cup maple syrup (or to taste)
1/4 cup unsweetened almond milk (or other plant milk)
1 tsp vanilla extract
Pinch of sea salt
Optional: fresh berries, shredded coconut, or chopped nuts for garnish

👩‍🍳 Instructions

1
Combine the scooped avocado flesh, cocoa powder, maple syrup, almond milk, vanilla extract, and sea salt in a food processor or high-speed blender.
2
Blend until completely smooth and creamy, scraping down the sides as needed. Continue blending for a few minutes until no avocado lumps remain and the texture is like a thick pudding.
3
Spoon the mousse into individual serving dishes or ramekins. Cover and refrigerate for at least 30 minutes to allow it to firm up and the flavors to meld.
4
Garnish with fresh berries, a sprinkle of sea salt, or a dusting of extra cocoa powder if desired, and serve.

💡 Notes

For an extra boost of protein, you can blend in a scoop of unflavored or chocolate protein powder. If using, you may need to add an extra tablespoon or two of almond milk to maintain the desired consistency. Store leftovers in an airtight container in the refrigerator for up to 2-3 days. This recipe is naturally vegan and gluten-free.
