A serving of mousse can have a day’s worth of artery-clogging saturated fat and added sugars, but everyone deserves a creamy, satisfying dessert sometimes. That’s why there’s chocolate avocado mousse. 

The basic recipe has only 8 grams of added sugars per serving, or about one-third of what you might expect from regular mousse. Instead of getting saturated fat from butter and whipping cream, this mousse only gets fat from heart-healthy avocados. Baking cocoa, or unsweetened cocoa powder, contributes rich chocolate flavor.

Variations on Chocolate Avocado Mousse

  1. Rocky Road - stir in 2 ounces of sliced almonds and serve with a few mini marshmallows
  2. Mint Delight - add a couple of drops of peppermint extract, and serve with fresh mint leaves as a garnish
  3. Triple Coconut - blend in ¼ cup of grated coconut, use coconut milk instead of almond or skim milk, and serve with 1 tablespoon of grated coconut per serving
  4. Orange Cream - add 1 tablespoon of orange zest, use orange juice instead of milk, and serve with orange wedges and (optional) a tablespoon of whipped topping
  5. Chocolate Cinnamon - blend in 1 teaspoon of cinnamon
  6. Mocha Cream - use coffee instead milk, and serve with a sprinkle of ground coffee and 1 tablespoon of whipped topping
  7. Chocolate Berry - blend in ½ cup of frozen or fresh berries and garnish with berries for serving
  8. Tropical Escape - Blend in frozen pineapple or mango chunks, and serve with pieces of pineapple or mango
