If you're looking for a simple dessert that feels a little special, this Creamy Chocolate Avocado Mousse is one of my favourites.
Rich, smooth, and wonderfully chocolatey, it's the kind of recipe that surprises people when they discover what's inside. The avocado creates an incredibly silky texture, while the banana adds natural sweetness and a touch of creaminess.
Best of all, it comes together in just a few minutes using a food processor.
Whether you're serving it as a dessert, enjoying it as an afternoon treat, or sharing it with friends and family, this mousse is proof that simple ingredients can create something truly delicious.
Ingredients
Chocolate Mousse
1 large ripe avocado (approximately 212 g without skin and stone)
2 ripe bananas (approximately 212 g without peel)
30 g raw cacao powder
30 g maple syrup
100 g coconut cream
¼ tsp Himalayan salt
½ tsp vanilla extract
½ tsp cinnamon
Whipped Coconut Cream
1 dl thick coconut cream
1 tsp vanilla sugar
Method
Chocolate Mousse
Peel the avocado and bananas.
Add all ingredients to a food processor fitted with a chopping blade.
Blend until completely smooth and creamy.
Spoon into serving glasses or jars.
Whipped Coconut Cream
Place a can of full-fat coconut milk in the refrigerator overnight.
Once chilled, use only the thick coconut cream from the top of the can.
Add the coconut cream and vanilla sugar to a chilled mixing bowl.
Whip until light, fluffy, and airy.
To Serve
Layer the chocolate mousse with whipped coconut cream in small glass jars or serving glasses.
Finish with a light sprinkle of cinnamon. Fresh berries also make a wonderful addition.
Nina's Tip
For the best texture, use very ripe bananas and a perfectly ripe avocado. The riper they are, the creamier and sweeter the mousse will be.
You can also make this dessert a few hours ahead and store it in the refrigerator until serving.
