HOW TO MAKE IT

Let's cook.

01

Combine all ingredients (avocados, cocoa powder, maple syrup, almond milk, vanilla extract, cinnamon, chili powder, and salt) in a food processor or high-speed blender.

02

Process on high until the mixture is completely smooth and creamy, scraping down the sides as needed. This may take 2-3 minutes.

03

Taste the mousse and adjust sweetness or spice if desired, adding more maple syrup or chili powder to your preference.

04

Spoon the mousse into individual serving dishes or small glasses.

05

Chill in the refrigerator for at least 30 minutes to allow the flavors to meld and the mousse to firm up slightly before serving.

Chef's Tips

For an extra decadent treat, top with a sprinkle of chopped dark chocolate, a dollop of coconut whipped cream, or a few fresh berries. Ensure your avocados are very ripe for the creamiest texture and best flavor.

Easy Substitutions

You can substitute agave nectar for maple syrup. Any plant-based milk can be used in place of almond milk. For a richer chocolate flavor, use Dutch-processed cocoa powder.
