Equipment

1 Food Processor Or high-speed blender
4 Small Bowls or Glasses For serving

Ingredients

2 ripe avocados Pitted
0.5 cup unsweetened cocoa powder High-quality
0.5 cup maple syrup Pure
0.25 cup almond milk Unsweetened
1 teaspoon vanilla extract Pure
0.1 teaspoon sea salt To taste

Instructions

In a food processor or high-speed blender, combine the avocados, cocoa powder, maple syrup, almond milk, vanilla extract, and sea salt.
Process until completely smooth and creamy, scraping down the sides as needed. This may take a few minutes.
Divide the mousse evenly among 4 small bowls or glasses. Cover and chill in the refrigerator for at least 30 minutes to allow the flavors to meld and the mousse to firm up slightly.
Serve chilled. Garnish with fresh berries, a sprinkle of cocoa powder, or a drizzle of maple syrup, if desired.

Notes

For a richer flavor, use dark cocoa powder. You can also add a pinch of cayenne pepper for a spicy kick.
