Tasty Tuesday - Dark Chocolate Avocado Mousse.

Don't be afraid by the title. Apparently this healthy little snack tastes just like brownie batter! I haven't tried it yet, but next time I go to the grocery store I'm picking up an avocado. Let me know if you try it and your thoughts!


Dark Chocolate Avocado Mousse
Recipe and Photo from Julie at Peanut Butter Fingers!


1 ripe avocado, skin and pit removed
3 1/2 tablespoons dark chocolate cocoa powder
3 1/2 tablespoons honey


Place avocado and dark chocolate cocoa powder in food processor. Add honey.

Process avocado, cocoa powder and honey for approximately one minute, pausing to scrape the sides, or until a thick, smooth mousse forms.

Spoon mousse into a small bowl, top with slivered almonds, fresh fruit or chocolate chips and enjoy.

Note: You may simply add more cocoa powder and honey if you prefer more chocolate or sweetness!

  1. 3 ingredients and tastes like brownie batter? I'm in...do you think a blender would work instead of a food processor or are they different? I'm so clueless!

  2. That combination sounds a little scary but could definitely work. Can't wait to hear how it turns out.
