Date-Sweetened Avocado Chocolate Mousse

It’s not often you find a quick and easy, decadent dessert that is completely guilt-free. And if it involves chocolate, you must take advantage. The thing that makes this mousse different is that it’s sweetened with a date along with the sweetness from your dark chocolate or chocolate chips.

Avocado in Chocolate Mousse?

Yes, this is the perfect way to give life to a couple ripening avocados. Though this recipe uses avocado, rest assured the avocado is hardly detectable. According to my husband’s taste test: 1 – he liked this mousse better than the chocolate mousse we both made in a couple’s cooking class (though that recipe involved double broiling and egg white whipping) and 2 – he didn’t notice any avocado. When I told him, he noted, “yes maybe, a slight hint, now that you mention it.” Maybe I shouldn’t have mentioned it. The main tip is to use small to medium avocados. Otherwise, you may taste it. The food processor gives it a mousse-like, whipped texture. Enjoy!
