Avocado calories

This avocado chocolate mousse is avocado calories, creamy, and made with just 5 ingredients! Naturally low carb and vegan friendly, it’s a decadent yet simple no bake dessert. Tired of using avocado to make your usual sandwich or toast?

Time to use it for a dessert, like this chocolate avocado mousse. Often considered a fantastic butter substitute, using avocado in mousses and puddings isn’t overly strange. It’s a healthy dessert option that provides all the texture necessary to create something extra rich and creamy. However, it tastes every bit as decadent and fancy as any good chocolate dessert out there. Using just 5 ingredients, the total hands on time in preparing this dessert is less than 5 minutes! The hard part is waiting for it to chill nicely, but honestly, it is so worth it!

Be sure to sift your cocoa powder first, to ensure no clumps remain. If you’d like a richer and darker chocolate mousse, use black cocoa powder. A refined sugar free sweetener that adds sweetness to the mousse and balances out the richness of the avocado and melted chocolate. The secret ingredient to take this mousse to another level! Making this avocado chocolate mousse recipe is simple: just remember to use a high-speed blender that has ice crushing capabilities. Next, add the rest of the ingredients and blend until creamy and smooth. Chill: Distribute the mousse mixture amongst 6 glasses or ramekins and refrigerate for 30 minutes, before serving.

You must blend the avocado first, before adding the rest of the ingredients. If you blend it all together, you risk mini chunks of avocado remaining in the mousse. If you use a blender, be sure it has ice blending capabilities. We want all the ingredients to be completely immersed. While you can enjoy the mousse immediately, I recommend chilling it for at least 30 minutes, so that it firms up slightly. Cut the carbs by using keto maple syrup and replacing the chocolate with sugar free chocolate chips.

Add flavor extracts like peppermint, vanilla, or orange. Make it coconut-free by swapping it out for heavy cream or double cream. Add fresh or frozen berries like raspberries, strawberries, or even cranberries. Lower the calories by using reduced fat coconut cream and reducing the chocolate by half. Change the sweetener and use honey or agave nectar instead. If you are worried that this will taste like avocado, fear not. The cocoa and chocolate masks any potential flavor, and the texture is exactly like any mousse out there.
