Ingredients
  

2 ripe avocados, peeled and pitted

1/4 cup unsweetened cocoa powder

1/3 cup pure maple syrup or agave nectar (adjust to your desired sweetness)

1/4 cup unsweetened almond milk (or your choice of milk)

1 teaspoon vanilla extract

A pinch of sea salt

Optional: A sprinkle of cinnamon or a dash of espresso powder to enhance flavor

Fresh berries and mint leaves for garnish

Instructions
 

Prepare the Avocados: Begin by placing the ripe avocados in a food processor or blender. Blend on medium speed until the mixture is smooth and creamy. Be sure to stop occasionally to scrape down the sides of the bowl for even mixing.

    Add Cocoa Powder: Once the avocados are pureed, add the unsweetened cocoa powder, maple syrup (or agave nectar), almond milk, vanilla extract, and a pinch of sea salt to the bowl. Blend thoroughly until all ingredients are well combined, resulting in a velvety mousse. Taste and adjust sweetness by incorporating additional maple syrup, if preferred.

      Flavor Enhancement: For an extra dimension of flavor, add a sprinkle of cinnamon or a dash of espresso powder. Blend the mixture again briefly to ensure the added flavors are well integrated.

        Chill the Mousse: Pour the mousse into individual serving cups or a large bowl. Cover tightly with plastic wrap to prevent it from absorbing other odors in the refrigerator. Chill for approximately 30 minutes. This step is crucial as it allows the flavors to develop and the texture to become luxuriously creamy.

          Serve: Once chilled, take out the mousse and give it a gentle stir. Spoon it into individual bowls or cups for serving. To elevate the presentation, garnish each serving with a handful of fresh berries and a sprig of mint for a pop of color and freshness.

            Enjoy: Indulge in your guilt-free chocolate avocado mousse, savoring its creamy texture and deep chocolate flavor without any of the guilt!
