Healthy Keto Dark Chocolate Mousse

It's not always easy to find delicious, healthy dessert recipes that are easy to make. But this dark chocolate mousse is a winner!

Using avocado as its base makes this Healthy Keto Avocado Chocolate Mousse creamy and decadent while also keeping it healthy and nourishing for your body. Avocados contain healthy fats that are completely cholesterol-free.

Avocados also contain nearly 20 vitamins, minerals, and phytonutrients; and just one serving of this superfood offers 8% of the recommended daily fibre intake. Fibre provides a feeling of fullness and has also been found to potentially reduce the risk of type 2 diabetes.

But you won't be able to taste the avocado at all! The texture of the avocado thickens the mousse and gives it extra creaminess, but it tastes just like a rich chocolate mousse.

Why you will love this recipe:

• Quick and easy. You can make this mousse in just five minutes using a few simple ingredients. Quick prep time with very little mess to clean up.
• Good for you. This delicious vegan dessert is full of nourishing ingredients that are full of health benefits.
• Delicious! Even though this recipe is vegan and keto, it is still a decadent and tasty dessert that everyone will enjoy. It is creamy, full of rich chocolate flavor, and perfectly sweet.

Ingredients and substitutions

• Avocados. Use soft, ripe avocados for this mousse recipe for the best creamy texture.
• Dark Chocolate. Use the best quality chocolate you can with a high cocoa content. I use 85% cocoa dark chocolate.
• Cocoa Powder. Make sure to use unsweetened cocoa powder for this recipe so that the sweetness and sugar levels are controlled.
• Vanilla Extract. Adds yummy flavor that enhances the taste of the chocolate mousse.
• Coconut Cream. To add delicious creaminess and richness to the mousse.
• Sugar-free sweetener. You can sweeten the mousse using xylitol, or maple syrup or agave syrup if you prefer.

What to serve with healthy chocolate mousse

• Roasted nuts
• Fresh fruit and berries
• Cocoa nibs
• Coconut flakes
• Sprigs of fresh mint
• A dusting of cocoa powder

Step by step instructions

STEP ONE

Start by melting the chocolate in the microwave. Place it in a microwave-safe bowl and cook on medium stirring every 30 seconds until melted. Set aside and allow the chocolate to cool slightly.

STEP TWO

Along with the melted chocolate, place all the ingredients into a high-speed blender. Blend together until smooth, scraping down the sides every now and again.

STEP THREE

Pour the mousse into serving glasses and top with your favorite toppings. Enjoy immediately or preferrably allow to chill for at least one hour before serving.

How to store chocolate avocado mousse?

You can store the mousse in the fridge for a few days or you can freeze the mousse for up to three months. When you are ready to enjoy it, simply place it on the counter and allow it to defrost. Alternatively, you can enjoy it half-frozen and it will be ice-cream-like. A delicious healthy summer dessert!

Avocados are a Keto diet superfood! They are full of healthy fats and very low in net carbs. Avocados also have 60% more potassium than bananas and are a great source of vitamin B, vitamin E, and vitamin K.
