How many times have you bought an avocado and when you want to use it its overripe and you just want to throw it away? I have, too many times! But there are so many things you can make using overripe avocados. This Healthy Chocolate Mousse for example. It’s a really simple, quick and delicious way of making use of overripe avocado that turns it into a rich, tasty, flavorful yet healthy chocolate mousse. The ripe avocado add a lovely creaminess to the mousse, making it perfectly silk like. The cacao powder makes it rich and decadent with a hint of bitterness. The vanilla adds a warm and comforting taste to it and the liquid sweetener makes is just as sweet as you like. To get just the texture you like on your chocolate mousse plant based milk is added to thin it out as much as required. I personally prefer this mousse less sweet and more rich in cacao flavor. If you want to pimp it up a bit you can also stir in come melted chocolate chips. Top this chocolate mousse with strawberries, raspberries as I did or with figs, whipped cream, ice cream, cherries or chopped nuts just to mention a few examples. This mousse it both vegan, gluten, grain, sugar free and low carb.
A few tips:
- Use ripe avocados to make sure the mousse turns out silk smooth. This is really a great way of using avocados that has started to turn brown that you otherwise might throw away.
- The amount of cacao powder and liquid sweetener can be adapted according to taste.
- Depending on how ripe your avocado is and how much cacao and liquid sweetener you’re using the amount of milk will vary. How much milk you need will also depend on how thick/thin you prefer your chocolate mousse.
