Chocolate Avocado Mousse


  • Author: Sophie Hart
  • Total Time: 75 minutes
  • Yield: 4 servings 1x

Description

Four small chilled avocado-cocoa dessert cups.


Ingredients

Scale
  • 2 avocados Ripe avocados
  • 1/3 cup Unsweetened cocoa powder
  • 1/4 cup Pure maple syrup
  • 1/4 cup Unsweetened canned coconut milk
  • 1 teaspoon Vanilla extract
  • 1/8 teaspoon Fine salt

Instructions

  1. Scoop flesh from two ripe avocados into a blender; remove pits. Add 1/3 cup cocoa, 1/4 cup pure maple syrup, 1/4 cup well-stirred canned coconut milk, 1 tsp vanilla and 1/8 tsp salt.
  2. Blend until completely smooth, stopping to scrape sides and bottom. If the blender cannot turn, pause and scrape rather than adding unmeasured liquid.
  3. Divide evenly into four small cups and cover surfaces. Refrigerate about one hour to chill and let cocoa flavor settle.
  4. Serve cold. Record actual avocado flesh weight, bitterness, sweetness, color and four-cup volume in a kitchen trial.
