Ingredients

Chocolate Mousse

  • 1 large avocado or 2 small
  • ¼-½ c plant-based milk depending on desired thickness
  • 1 Tbsp organic cold-pressed coconut oil
  • 1 Tbsp raw cacao powder
  • 40 g raw dark chocolate chopped
  • 1 Tbsp coffee/espresso we used Teeccino
  • ½ tsp organic vanilla extract
  • 1-2 tsp coconut nectar to taste

Optional Toppings

  • 1 Tbsp cacao nibs
  • 1 Tbsp shredded coconut

Instructions

  • Melt the dark chocolate over a stovetop with the coconut oil and coffee (if you have a Thermomix you can melt it on the 37°C or 50°C setting).
  • Combine the melted chocolate sauce with the remaining ingredients in a blender or bowl. Combine all the ingredients using a high speed blender, processor or hand mixer and blend or mix until creamy and smooth. The texture will resemble a fluffy mousse.
  • Spoon into a bowl or wine glass (for some flare) and garnish with toppings of your choice.
  • Chill and enjoy!

Notes

  • Make it keto: use stevia to taste instead of coconut nectar.
