Rich Vegan Dessert with a Healthy Twist
ingredients:
- 2 ripe avocados, pitted | 400 grams
- ¼ cup unsweetened cocoa powder | 22 grams
- ¼ cup maple syrup (or more to taste) | 60 milliliters
- 2 tablespoons chia seeds | 30 grams
- 1 teaspoon vanilla extract | 5 milliliters
- Pinch of sea salt
- ¼ cup unsweetened plant-based milk (almond, soy, or oat), if needed for smoother blending
- Optional toppings: fresh berries, chopped nuts, vegan chocolate shavings
directions:
1. Combine the avocado flesh, cocoa powder, maple syrup, chia seeds, vanilla extract, and salt in a food processor or high-speed blender.
2. Blend until completely smooth and creamy, scraping down the sides as needed. If the mixture is too thick, add plant-based milk one tablespoon at a time until the desired smooth consistency is reached.
3. Taste and adjust sweetness as needed.
4. Divide the mousse among serving bowls or glasses.
5. Refrigerate for at least 30 minutes to allow the mousse to chill and the chia seeds to slightly thicken it.
6. Garnish with fresh berries, chopped nuts, or vegan chocolate shavings before serving, if desired.
