Vegan day 297: Chocolate Avocado Mousse
This is the closest thing I have seen yet to VEGAN MAGIC!
This is a recipe that I learned firsthand in the LIVING AND RAW FOOD INTENSIVE at the Natural Gourmet Institute in NYC. I love desserts and I love chocolate. When our chef, Celine Beitchman, said this was made with avocados- I was completely puzzled. After we made it and tasted it, I was even more amazed as I sat there in bewilderment.. a healthy chocolate wonderland.
Renee’s Chocolate Avocado Mousse
Avocado- 2 cups
Maple syrup- 1/2 cup
Organic sugar- 2-4 tablespoons (optional)
Coconut butter unscented- 2 tablespoons (optional)
Vanilla bean seeds- cut open one whole bean
Aged balsamic vinegar- 1 teaspoon
Shoyu- 1/2 teaspoon
Cocoa powder unsweetened- 1 cup
Raspberries
Mint leaves
Cacao nibs
This is quite simple!
Using a food processor: mix the avocado, maple syrup, optional ingredients, vanilla bean, balsamic and shoyu. Add in the cocoa powder; blend until you have the consistency you want and then chill it if you can wait that long to eat it. The only advice you really need here is to be careful tasting it. You will be so tempted not to wait that you may want to dive in near the blade. Use a spatula and have fun! Kids will love this!
Even though this dessert looks looks good without INSTAGRAM, feel free to check out my INSTAGRAM for fun! https://www.facebook.com/media/set/?set=a.3005383461754.2117441.1477431979&type=3
