Ingredients:

  • 2 ripe avocados
  • 3 tablespoons unsweetened cocoa powder
  • Sugar substitute (stevia or erythritol) to taste

Instructions:

  1. Halve and pit the avocados. Scoop the flesh into a high-speed blender or food processor.
  2. Add the unsweetened cocoa powder and your chosen sugar substitute.
  3. Blend the mixture on high until it reaches a smooth, lump-free consistency. You may need to stop and scrape down the sides of the blender a few times to ensure even mixing.
  4. Taste the mousse and adjust sweetness or cocoa level to your liking. If the mousse is too thick, add a splash of almond milk until the desired consistency is achieved.

Serving Suggestions:

  • Garnish with fresh berries (such as raspberries or strawberries) for added natural sweetness.
  • Add a dollop of sugar-free whipped cream for a light, airy contrast.
  • Sprinkle cacao nibs or a dash of cinnamon on top for added crunch and flavor.

Nutritional Benefits:
This chocolate avocado mousse is packed with healthy fats and fiber, both of which are beneficial for managing blood sugar levels. The use of a sugar substitute keeps it low in carbohydrates, making it suitable for those managing diabetes. The combination of avocados and cocoa powder provides a rich, creamy dessert that satisfies your sweet tooth without compromising your health goals.
