Satisfy your sweet craving without feeling guilty. Instead of loading your mousse with butter, try using avocado instead. The good fats in the avocado lend similar properties as butter so that the result is just as smooth. Check out our recipe below for tips and tricks. This bundle includes:
- Two Large Hass Avocados from Will's Avocados
- Extra Semisweet Akoma Chocolate Chips from Guittard Chocolate, 12 oz bag
- Pastured Eggs from St. John Family Farm, 1 dozen
RecipeMakes 6 x 1/2 cup servings
- 2 ripe avocados
- 4 pastured eggs, separated
- 1 cup chocolate chips
- 1/4 cup almond milk (optional)
- 1/4 cup honey
- 1 teaspoon vanilla
- 1 teaspoon sea salt
Put the chocolate chips in a bowl over barely simmering water, and melt. Meanwhile, add the avocados, eggs yolks, vanilla, and honey to your KitchenAid mixer. Cream together until it's smooth and whipped. Add in the almond milk, and mix to combine (optional). Transfer to another bowl, mix in the melted chocolate, and clean out the KitchenAid really well. Add the egg whites and salt to the mixer, and beat until the eggs form soft peaks. Fold into the cocoa mixture, and chill for at least an hour before serving.
