Background

Chocolate avocado mousse may sound unusual at first, but it’s surprisingly rich, smooth and delicious. The avocado gives the mousse a naturally creamy texture, while the cocoa provides deep chocolate flavour. The result is a light dessert that feels indulgent but is actually quite wholesome.
This simple mousse is naturally gluten-free and can easily be made vegan by using plant-based yoghurt. It’s perfect as a quick treat, but also elegant enough to serve as a lighter dessert at a dinner party.

Ingredients

1 ripe avocado
2 Tbsp cocoa powder
2 Tbsp maple syrup, date syrup or agave syrup
2 Tbsp Greek yoghurt or soy yoghurt
1 tsp vanilla extract

Instructions

Cut the avocado in half, remove the stone and scoop the flesh into a blender or small food processor.
Add the cocoa powder, syrup, yoghurt and vanilla extract.
Blend until the mixture becomes completely smooth, light and creamy.
Spoon the mousse into two small glasses or bowls and refrigerate for at least 2 hours to allow it to set and chill.
Serve with a small dollop of yoghurt on top if you like.
