HEALTHY 5 MIN CHOCOLATE MOUSSE

by | May 9, 2021 | recipes

What’s mousse?

Mousse is a dessert that’s made of cream and eggs that have been whipped until they‘re light and creamy. …  No wonder mousse is considered to be a comfort food and loved by many. In Old French, mousse means “froth,” but also, unappetizingly, “scum.”

If you have heavy cream, some eggs, and flavoring — plus a whisk or an electric mixer — you can make mousse. Most mousses are sweet, flavored with chocolate or fruit or nut butter, but it’s also possible to make a savory mousse, like a salmon mousse (here’s a new idea for my next recipe) or a chicken liver mousse.

Today, I will show you how to make a healthier version of chocolate mousse made from avocado but retains the amazing taste and texture of a real chocolate mousse. This recipe has no eggs, no sugar or diary and it’s gluten free.

Recipe:
2 Small Avocados – 1 avocado for 2 portions
1/3 Cup coconut milk – 2 tbsp + 2 tsp
3 Tbsp Cocoa Powder – 1.5 tbsp
3 Tbsp Honey – 1.5 tbsp
1/4 tsp shredded skin of orange
pinch of sea salt

  1. Cut avocados in half and remove pip and skin.
  2. Place into a food processor with the coconut milk, honey, cocoa powder, and 1/4 tsp of shredded skin from orange.
  3. Blend until the mousse comes together. If you would like a thinner mousse consistency just add more milk. This mousse doesn’t taste like avocado at all.
  4. Serve with your choice of berries or seeds of pomegranate. This mousse should last in the fridge for a few days.
  5. Enjoy!
