Ingredients

2 ripe avocados, peeled and pitted

1/2 cup unsweetened cocoa powder

1/3 cup maple syrup (or honey)

1/4 cup almond milk (or any plant-based milk)

1 teaspoon vanilla extract

1/4 teaspoon sea salt

Optional toppings: whipped coconut cream, cocoa nibs, fresh berries, mint leaves

Instructions

In a food processor, combine the ripe avocados, unsweetened cocoa powder, maple syrup, almond milk, vanilla extract, and sea salt.

Blend all the ingredients until smooth and creamy, scraping down the sides as needed to ensure everything is well incorporated.

Taste the mousse and adjust sweetness if desired, adding more maple syrup if necessary. Blend again for a few moments to combine.

Once the mixture is fully blended and smooth, transfer it into serving dishes or bowls.

Cover and chill the mousse in the refrigerator for at least 30 minutes before serving to allow it to firm up slightly.

Once chilled, serve the mousse topped with whipped coconut cream, a sprinkle of cocoa nibs, fresh berries, or mint leaves for an extra touch.
