Instructions

  1. Step 1: In a food processor, combine 2 peeled and pitted ripe avocados with 1/3 cup unsweetened cocoa powder, 1/4 cup maple syrup, 1 tsp vanilla extract, and 1/8 tsp sea salt. Blend until smooth and creamy, scraping down the sides as needed.
  2. Step 2: If the mousse is too thick, add 2 tbsp almond milk and blend again until desired creamy consistency is reached.
  3. Step 3: Spoon mousse into serving dishes and chill in the refrigerator for at least 30 minutes before serving to allow flavors to meld.
