Creamy Avocado Mousse

Dive into a decadent world with this Creamy Avocado Mousse, where tropical flavors and velvety textures unite in perfect harmony. This delightful dessert celebrates the luscious avocado, a fruit revered in ancient Central American cultures not only for its rich taste but also for its remarkable health benefits. Sweetened naturally with honey and brightened with zesty lime, this mousse is a guilt-free indulgence that will tantalize your taste buds. Each scoop is a creamy explosion of flavor, making it an irresistible treat for any occasion. Garnish with a sprinkle of toasted coconut or fresh lime zest for an eye-catching finish that will impress your guests.

Serves 4

Ingredients

Ripe avocados
2 large
Chilled coconut cream
1 cup
Honey
1/4 cup, adjust to taste
Fresh lime juice
1/4 cup
Vanilla extract
1 teaspoon
Pinch of salt
to taste

Instructions

  1. Begin by slicing the ripe avocados in half and carefully removing the pit.
  2. Scoop the creamy flesh of the avocados into a blender or food processor.
  3. Add the chilled coconut cream, honey, freshly squeezed lime juice, vanilla extract, and a pinch of salt to the blender.
  4. Blend on high speed until the mixture is smooth and creamy, scraping down the sides as necessary to ensure all ingredients are well combined.
  5. Taste the mousse and adjust the sweetness with more honey if desired.
  6. Once blended to perfection, divide the mousse into four elegant serving dishes.
  7. Cover each dish with plastic wrap and chill in the refrigerator for at least 30 minutes to allow the flavors to meld and the mousse to set.
  8. Serve chilled, garnished with fresh lime zest or a sprinkle of toasted coconut for an extra touch.

Tips

  • 💡 For a chocolate twist, add 2 tablespoons of unsweetened cocoa powder before blending.
  • 💡 If you prefer a sweeter mousse, you can substitute honey with maple syrup for a vegan option.
  • 💡 Experiment with different toppings such as crushed nuts, fresh berries, or a dollop of yogurt for added texture and flavor.
