Instructions
Prepare the Avocados
Halve the avocados, remove the pits, and scoop all the flesh into a food processor or high-speed blender. Make sure the avocados are very ripe for the creamiest result.
Add Remaining Ingredients
Add the cocoa powder, maple syrup, coconut milk, vanilla extract, and sea salt to the blender with the avocado. Process until completely smooth with no lumps remaining.
Taste and Adjust
Taste the mousse and adjust sweetness with more maple syrup or add more cocoa powder for a deeper chocolate flavor. Blend again briefly after any adjustments.
Chill and Serve
Transfer the mousse to serving glasses or bowls and refrigerate for at least 30 minutes to firm up. Serve topped with fresh berries or a sprinkle of cacao nibs.
