- 1/4 cup maple syrup or agave nectar
- 1/4 cup full-fat coconut milk (canned)
- 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
- 1/8 teaspoon salt
- 2 tablespoons dark chocolate chips (optional, for garnish)
Instructions
- Scoop the avocado flesh into a food processor or high-speed blender.
- Add cocoa powder, maple syrup, coconut milk, vanilla extract, and salt.
- Blend until completely smooth, scraping down sides as needed, about 1-2 minutes.
- Taste and adjust sweetness if desired.
- Divide mousse into serving bowls or glasses.
- Refrigerate for at least 30 minutes to set (or serve immediately for a softer texture).
- Garnish with chocolate chips if using, and serve chilled.

- Use very ripe avocados for the creamiest texture.
- Store leftovers covered in the refrigerator for up to 2 days.
- For a lighter mousse, fold in 1/2 cup of whipped coconut cream after blending.
