If you have a food processor, an immersion blender or a regular blender you can make this creamy dessert and feel good about it.
I’ve lived in California now for 13 years. 13 years! I can hardly believe it! When I moved here from the east coast I quickly realized how lucky I was to have immediate access to premium California Avocados. As an iconic California staple, I love coming up with different ways to use them all year long.
If you’ve never made chocolate avocado mousse before, I think you’re gonna love it. It’s perfect for the approaching warm weather, it can be made ahead and chilled in the fridge, AND the crunchy toppings make it fun and give it great texture.
Keep it simple yet creative and have fun with this recipe!

Had 2 Avocados turning brown, no bueno for quac, but this was an awesome solution and its dairy free! (If you use dairy free milk, I used Almond milk) try it! Even better you can make it more chocolaty or sweet as you want! ! I did only have 2 avocados so I cut the milk and cocoa in half. and still worked! thank you for this recipe
