Ingredients
  

  • 2 medium ripe avocados (about 300g / 10.6 oz), peeled, pitted, and diced
  • ½ cup (45 g / 1.59 oz) unsweetened cocoa powder
  • ¼ cup (60 ml / 2 fl oz) full-fat coconut milk
  • ¼ cup (48 g / 1.69 oz) powdered erythritol
  • 2 tsp (10 ml) pure vanilla extract
  • 1 pinch sea salt
  • ¼ cup (45 g / 1.59 oz) sugar-free dark chocolate chips (optional, for topping)
  • For the creamiest, smoothest mousse, use very ripe avocados. They blend better and have a milder flavor.
  • Use a powdered sweetener. Granular sweeteners can leave a gritty texture. If you only have granular, pulse it in a blender first to create a powder.
  • For different consistencies, swap the coconut milk. Use heavy cream for an extra rich, decadent mousse or unsweetened almond milk for a slightly lighter version.

Method
 

  1. Directions1.
  2. Combine all (except the optional chocolate chips) in a high-speed blender or food processor.
  3. Place the avocados, cocoa powder, coconut milk, erythritol, vanilla extract, and salt into the basin. 2.
  4. Blend on high speed until the mixture is completely smooth, silky, and free of any lumps. You may need to stop and scrape down the sides once or twice to ensure everything is fully incorporated. 3.
  5. Taste and adjust sweetness if necessary. For a richer flavor, you can add a little more cocoa powder. 4.
  6. Transfer the mousse to individual serving dishes. For the best texture and flavor, cover and refrigerate for at least 1 hour to allow it to chill and set. 5.
  7. When ready to serve, top with sugar-free chocolate chips, if desired.
  8. Don't skip the salt! A small pinch enhances the chocolate flavor and balances the sweetness.
