AVOCADO CHOCOLATE MOUSSE

from Lorianne's sister
Recipe
Ingredients: 1/2 cup pitted medjool dates, soaked for 20 minutes
1/2 cup agave nectar or maple syrup
1 tsp vanilla extract, optional
1 1/2 cups mashed avocado (3 avocados)
3/4 cup organic cocoa
1/2 cup water
 
Directions: Place dates, agave and vanilla in food processor and process until smooth. Add mashed avocado and cocoa powder and process until creamy. Add water and process until smooth. Serve at room temperature or chilled. Stored in a sealed container, will keep 3 days in refrigerator or 2 weeks in freezer.
 
Optional - try adding cinnamon.




You won't even notice the unusual ingredients in this healthy mousse. The avocado takes the place of the cream, and gives the mousse the same smooth texture... but the chocolate disguises the color!
