Ingredients
  

2 ripe avocados, peeled and pitted

1/2 cup unsweetened cocoa powder

1/3 cup maple syrup (adjust according to your desired sweetness)

1/4 cup almond milk (or any milk alternative you prefer)

1 teaspoon vanilla extract

1/8 teaspoon sea salt

Optional garnish: chocolate shavings or fresh berries

Instructions
 

Blend the Avocados: Place the peeled and pitted avocados in a food processor or a high-speed blender. Blend until the avocados are incredibly smooth and creamy, pausing to scrape down the sides with a spatula to ensure everything is well blended.

    Add Cocoa and Sweeteners: Sift the unsweetened cocoa powder directly into the avocado mixture to prevent any lumps. Next, pour in the maple syrup, almond milk, vanilla extract, and sprinkle with sea salt. Blend again until the mixture is velvety and all the ingredients are thoroughly combined.

      Taste and Adjust: Taste your chocolate mousse. If you prefer a sweeter flavor profile, feel free to add more maple syrup at this stage and blend once more to mix in the sweetness.

        Freeze the Mixture: Spoon the mousse into a medium-sized mixing bowl or individual serving cups. Cover with plastic wrap or a lid to avoid freezer burn and place it in the freezer. Allow the dessert to set for a minimum of 2 hours, or until it attains a firm, mousse-like texture.

          Serve and Garnish: After freezing, remove the mousse from the freezer and let it rest at room temperature for 5–10 minutes to allow it to soften just enough for scooping. Serve in bowls and elevate the aesthetic with chocolate shavings or a sprinkle of fresh berries for a beautiful touch.

            Enjoy: Indulge in your rich and creamy chocolate avocado mousse—a delightful, nutritious treat that is both satisfying and wholesome!
