Indulge in a rich and creamy dessert with this Dairy-free Chocolate Avocado Mousse. Perfect for those who are lactose-intolerant or following a dairy-free diet, this mousse uses ripe avocados to create a velvety texture and dark chocolate to satisfy your sweet cravings. With a hint of coconut milk and a sprinkle of pistachio nuts, it's a delightful treat that's both nutritious and delicious.
Instructions:
- Break the dark chocolate into small pieces and place them in a microwave-safe bowl.
- Microwave on high in 30-second intervals, stirring between each interval, until the chocolate is completely melted and smooth. Set aside to cool slightly.
- Cut the avocados in half and remove the pits. Scoop the avocado flesh into a food processor or blender.
- Process until smooth to ensure there are no lumps.
- Add the cooled, melted dark chocolate, coconut milk, and dry cocoa powder to the avocado in the food processor.
- Blend together until the mixture is creamy and smooth. You may need to scrape down the sides of the bowl a couple of times to ensure everything is well combined.
- Taste the mousse. If you prefer a sweeter mousse, you can add a sweetener of your choice (such as maple syrup or agave nectar) and blend again until incorporated.
- If the mousse is too thick, you can add a bit more coconut milk, a tablespoon at a time, until you reach your desired consistency.
- Transfer the mousse to individual serving dishes or a large bowl.
- Cover with plastic wrap and refrigerate for at least 1 hour to chill and set.
- Before serving, chop the pistachio nuts finely.
- Sprinkle the chopped pistachio nuts over the top of the mousse for a crunchy garnish.
- Serve the dairy-free chocolate avocado mousse chilled and enjoy this rich, creamy, and decadent dessert that’s completely free from dairy!
Tips:
- Choose ripe avocados to achieve a smoother and creamier mousse.
- Melt the dark chocolate gently, preferably using a double boiler or microwave in short bursts, to prevent burning.
- Blend the avocados thoroughly to avoid any lumps and ensure a silky texture.
- Adjust the sweetness to your preference by adding a touch of maple syrup or honey if required.
- Chill the mousse for at least an hour before serving to enhance its texture and flavor.
- Top with more nuts, coconut flakes, or fresh berries for added crunch and flavor.
