Avocado Chocolate Mousse (Sugar-Free) - Rich, Creamy, and Ready in Minutes

Prep Time 10 minutes
Total Time 10 minutes
Servings: 4 servings

Ingredients
  

  • 2 large ripe avocados
  • 1/4 cup unsweetened cocoa powder (Dutch-process or natural)
  • 3–5 tablespoons sugar-free sweetener, to taste (powdered erythritol, monk fruit, or stevia blend)
  • 1/4 cup unsweetened almond milk (or coconut milk), plus more as needed
  • 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
  • Pinch of fine sea salt
  • Optional add-ins: 1–2 tablespoons almond butter or coconut cream for extra richness; 1/8 teaspoon cinnamon or espresso powder for depth
  • Optional toppings: fresh berries, chopped nuts, sugar-free chocolate shavings, whipped coconut cream

Method
 

  1. Prep the avocados: Halve, pit, and scoop the flesh into a food processor or high-speed blender. Make sure the avocados are soft and ripe.
  2. Add the base ingredients: Add cocoa powder, 3 tablespoons sweetener, almond milk, vanilla, and a pinch of salt.
  3. Blend until smooth: Process for 30–60 seconds, pausing to scrape the sides. Add a splash more milk if needed to reach a mousse-like texture.
  4. Taste and adjust: Add more sweetener to taste. If you like deeper chocolate notes, add a bit more cocoa or a pinch of espresso powder.
  5. Make it extra creamy (optional): Blend in almond butter or coconut cream for a richer mouthfeel.
  6. Serve or chill: Spoon into small bowls. Enjoy right away for a pudding-like texture, or chill 30–60 minutes for a firmer mousse.
  7. Finish with toppings: Add berries, nuts, or a dollop of whipped coconut cream just before serving.
