I made my friend Jenna guess what she thought this Chocolate Mousse was made with. After a few failed attempts, she was amazed when I told her the main ingredient was avocado. The avocados give the mousse a rich, creamy texture. Its also a sugar free for those of you who are taking a break from unhealthy desserts.
2 Avocados (neither overripe nor underripe)
(about 2 cups mashed)
1/4 cup plus 3 Tbsp agave nectar
1/4 cup plus 2 Tbs raw cocoa powder (add more to taste if necessary)
3 Tbs raw almond butter (I included the recipe below for almond butter)
1 tsp lemon juice
pinch ground cinnamon
pinch ground nutmeg or cardamom
Almond Butter:
1 cup almonds
1 Tbsp vegetable oil
salt to taste
Bake the almonds at 350 degree F. Add the three ingredients to the food processor and blend until you get the consistency you desire.
Add the three ingredients to the food processor and blend until creamy. Transfer to bowls and serve immediately.
