Creamy Avocado Chocolate Mousse Recipe


  • Author: Jennie Graham
  • Total Time: 10 minutes
  • Yield: 4 servings 1x

Description

This rich and creamy avocado chocolate mousse transforms healthy avocados into a luxurious dessert that’s vegan, gluten-free, and ready in just 10 minutes with no cooking required.


Ingredients

Scale
  • 3 ripe medium Hass avocados (17 ounces; 480g), pitted and flesh scooped
  • 1/2 cup plus 2 tablespoons (2 1/4 ounces; 63g) Dutch-processed cocoa powder
  • 1/4 teaspoon Diamond Crystal kosher salt (use a pinch for table salt)
  • 1/2 teaspoon vanilla paste
  • 1/2 cup (120ml) oat milk
  • 1/3 cup (80ml) light agave syrup

Instructions

  1. In the bowl of a food processor, process avocados, cocoa powder, and salt until just blended. Using a silicone spatula, scrape down sides of the bowl. Add vanilla paste, oat milk, and agave syrup, then process until creamy, 3 to 4 minutes.

Notes

  • Use perfectly ripe avocados – they should yield slightly to gentle pressure but not be mushy
  • Chill your serving glasses beforehand for an extra refreshing dessert experience
  • Add cocoa powder gradually if you prefer to adjust the chocolate intensity to taste
  • For a richer flavor, let the mousse rest in the fridge for 30 minutes before serving
  • Garnish with fresh berries, coconut flakes, or a sprinkle of sea salt for elegant presentation
