Paleo Avocado Coconut Chocolate Mousse

 

If you are afraid of avocado as an ingredient in a dessert type dish, do not worry because you will not taste the avocado. This dessert is very creamy and delicious but does not taste like avocado at all. Try it out and you'll see for yourself.

 

Ingredients:

 

2 large and ripe organic avocados

1/4 cup of pure unsweetened and organic cocoa powder

2 organic tablespoons of vanilla extract

1/4 cup of organic coconut cream (use the cream that is on the top)

some pure and raw organic honey

some whipped organic cream (optional and for people who do not follow Paleo to the strict rules)

some organic chocolate nibs or shavings for the decoration

some organic berries

a sprig of organic mint (and totally optional)

 

Directions:

 

Go ahead and blend your avocados, the organic cocoa, the organic coconut cream and the organic vanilla extract in your food processor or with a handheld mixer in a mixing bowl

 

Add your raw organic honey as a sweetener and to your taste

 

Distribute the mixture into your favorite dishes, silicone molds, martini or wine glasses

 

Make sure to layer the mousse and the berries (one layer of berries and one layer of mousse)

 

Top the dessert with your organic whipped cream (if you are not 100% Paleo), or use some paleo coconut cream alternative like whipped coconut cream  and decorate with the rest of your organic berries the mint spring and some organic chocolate shavings

 

This mousse calls for some serious hot or cold beverages and you can serve whatever your heart desires and even some sparkly Pink Champagne is a great combination because it brings out the flavor of the berries and the chocolate.

 

It is St. Valentine's so you can splurge a little!
