If you’re looking for a delicious, healthy treat that doesn’t compromise on flavor, our Chocolate Avocado Protein Mousse is the perfect recipe for you. This creamy, rich mousse combines the creamy texture of avocados with the indulgent taste of chocolate, while packing a serious superfoods and protein punch to support your fitness goals. Whether you’re craving a post-workout snack or a guilt-free dessert, this mousse will satisfy your sweet tooth and nourish your body.

Ingredients:

  • 2 ripe avocados (peeled and pitted)
  • 1/4 cup unsweetened cocoa powder
  • 1/4 cup honey or maple syrup (adjust to taste)
  • 1/4 cup unsweetened almond milk (or any milk of your choice)
  • 1 scoop Chocolate Phyto Perfect Protein
  • 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
  • A pinch of sea salt

Instructions:

  1. Prepare the Avocados:

    • Cut the avocados in half, remove the pit, and scoop the flesh into a food processor or blender.
  2. Add Cocoa Powder and Sweetener:

    • Add the unsweetened cocoa powder and honey (or maple syrup) to the avocado. This will give the mousse its rich chocolate flavor and sweetness.
  3. Incorporate Protein Powder:

    • Add the scoop of protein powder to the mixture. This will not only boost the protein content but also enhance the chocolate flavor.
  4. Blend Ingredients:

    • Pour in the unsweetened almond milk and vanilla extract. Blend everything together until smooth and creamy. Scrape down the sides as needed to ensure all ingredients are well incorporated.
  5. Season to Taste:

    • Taste the mousse and adjust the sweetness if needed by adding more honey or maple syrup. Add a pinch of sea salt to enhance the flavor.
  6. Chill and Serve:

    • Transfer the mousse to serving dishes and refrigerate for at least 30 minutes to let it firm up and allow the flavors to meld. Serve chilled and enjoy!

Tips:

  • Texture Adjustments: If the mousse is too thick, you can add a little more almond milk to reach your desired consistency.
  • Toppings: Garnish with fresh berries, a sprinkle of sea salt, or a dollop of Greek yogurt for added flavor and texture.
  • Storage: Store any leftovers in an airtight container in the refrigerator for up to 3 days.
