Raw avocado chocolate mousse with hazelnuts

Chocolate Avocado Mousse

Experience the decadence of chocolate mousse-like never before with our Raw Avocado Chocolate Mousse with Hazelnuts—an extraordinary dessert that combines creamy avocados, rich cocoa powder, and the natural sweetness of maple syrup. This indulgent treat is not only a delight for your taste buds but also a healthier alternative to traditional chocolate mousse, thanks to the heart-healthy avocados. Each spoonful has an exquisite contrast thanks to the crunchy hazelnuts that complement the rich chocolate flavor and velvety-smooth texture. Whether you're looking for a guilt-free dessert or a unique way to savor the goodness of avocados, this recipe promises to elevate your culinary experience.


Ingredients:

  • 2 ripe avocados, peeled and pitted

  • 1/4 cup unsweetened cocoa powder

  • 1/4 cup maple syrup or agave nectar

  • 1/4 cup almond milk or any plant-based milk

  • 1 teaspoon pure vanilla extract

  • A pinch of salt

  • 1/4 cup chopped hazelnuts (for garnish)

  • Fresh berries (optional, for garnish)


Instructions:

1. Blend Avocado Mixture:

  • In a food processor or blender, combine the ripe avocados, unsweetened cocoa powder, maple syrup (or agave nectar), almond milk, pure vanilla extract, and a pinch of salt.

2. Blend Until Smooth:

  • Blend all the ingredients until you have a smooth and creamy chocolate mousse-like consistency. Scrape down the sides of the blender or food processor as needed to ensure everything is well combined.

3. Chill:

  • Transfer the avocado chocolate mousse to a bowl or individual serving glasses.

  • Cover and refrigerate for at least 30 minutes to allow it to chill and firm up slightly.

4. Garnish:

  • Before serving, garnish the mousse with chopped hazelnuts for a delightful crunch and, if desired, fresh berries for a burst of color and freshness.

5. Serve:

  • Serve the Raw Avocado Chocolate Mousse with Hazelnuts as a guilt-free and decadent dessert option.


This Raw Avocado Chocolate Mousse is not only rich and indulgent but also packed with healthy fats from avocados. It's a delightful way to satisfy your chocolate cravings while keeping it nutritious. Enjoy!
