Ingredients
Ingredients
- 2 large ripe avocados pitted and peeled
- 0.5 cup cocoa powder unsweetened, for a deep chocolate flavor
- 0.5 cup maple syrup or agave nectar for sweetness
- 0.25 cup non-dairy milk such as almond or oat milk, for creaminess
- 1 tsp vanilla extract for aromatic flavor
- 0.25 tsp sea salt to enhance the chocolate flavor
- 1 pinch espresso powder optional, for richer chocolate taste
Notes
Storage: Cover tightly and refrigerate for up to 3 days. The mousse may darken slightly due to oxidation but remains safe to eat. Make-Ahead: Prepare up to 2 days in advance and store in the refrigerator. Substitutions: Use coconut sugar or date syrup instead of maple syrup. For a richer flavor, add 1-2 tablespoons of melted vegan dark chocolate. Serving Suggestions: Serve chilled in elegant glasses for a dinner party dessert, or layer with granola and fruit for a parfait.
