A silky, rich, dairy-free chocolate mousse made with avocado for a creamy texture and packed with natural sweetness.
Ingredients
- 1 ripe avocado yes, you’re putting this in dessert—trust me
- ¼ cup cocoa powder dark and rich, like your life goals
- ¼ cup maple syrup or agave for a different vibe
- ¼ cup plant-based milk almond, oat, or whatever’s in your fridge

Instructions
- Slice the avocado in half, remove the pit, and scoop the flesh into a blender.

- Blend until smooth and creamy. Scrape down the sides, then blend again.
