Scale
- 200 g dark chocolate
- 2 avocados
- 110 ml thickened cream
- 1 tbsp maple syrup
- 1/2 tsp vanilla extract
Instructions
- Coarsely chop 180g (6oz) dark chocolate and place in a microwave-safe bowl. Melt the chocolate, stirring with a metal spoon until chocolate is smooth. Set aside to cool slightly. Finely grate remaining chocolate.
- Cut avocados in half and scoop into a blender. Reserve avocado shells. Add melted chocolate, cream, maple syrup and vanilla to blender and process until smooth.
- Spoon mixture into avocado shells. Sprinkle with grated chocolate.
Notes
- This healthier dessert is super creamy, and will also help you get plenty of healthy fats and an extra serve of fruit/veg.
- You can serve the mousse in the avocado skin but this is totally not necessary!
- Tip: Use a dry metal spoon when stirring the chocolate as moisture in wooden spoons can cause the chocolate to seize (go hard and grainy).
- Prep Time: 10 mins
