Equipment

  • blender
  • food processor
  • Spatula
  • Mixing bowl

Ingredients

For the mousse

  • 2 ripe avocados pitted and peeled
  • 1/4 cup unsweetened cocoa powder
  • 1/3 cup powdered erythritol or keto sweetener blend or to taste
  • 1/4 cup unsweetened almond milk or coconut milk from carton
  • 2 tablespoons coconut cream or heavy whipping cream
  • 1 teaspoon pure vanilla extract
  • 1/8 teaspoon fine sea salt
  • 1 tablespoon cacao nibs or shaved sugar free dark chocolate optional, for topping

Optional toppings

  • 1/2 cup whipped heavy cream or whipped coconut cream unsweetened or lightly sweetened with keto sweetener
  • 1/4 cup fresh raspberries or blackberries optional, for garnish
  • 2 tablespoons chopped toasted nuts such as almonds, pecans, or walnuts, optional

Instructions

  • Add the ripe avocado flesh, unsweetened cocoa powder, powdered keto sweetener, almond milk, coconut cream or heavy cream, vanilla extract, and salt to a high speed blender or food processor.
  • Blend on high, stopping to scrape down the sides as needed, until the mixture is completely smooth and no green flecks of avocado remain.
  • Taste the mousse and adjust sweetness by adding a little more keto sweetener if desired, blending again briefly to combine.
  • Divide the mousse evenly among four small dessert cups or bowls, smoothing the tops with a spoon or spatula.
  • Cover and refrigerate the mousse for at least one hour to chill and thicken, or up to three days for make ahead convenience.
  • Just before serving, top the chilled mousse with whipped cream, berries, chopped nuts, and cacao nibs or shaved sugar free chocolate if using, then serve cold.

Notes

For the best flavor use avocados that are just ripe, without any dark or stringy spots, so the avocado flavor stays in the background. If your blender struggles, add an extra splash of almond milk, a teaspoon at a time, until the blades move easily while still keeping the mousse thick. Store leftovers in an airtight container in the refrigerator for up to three days and stir gently before serving to restore a silky texture. To keep carbs low, use only a small amount of berries per portion and choose sugar free chocolate that is at least seventy percent cocoa with a keto friendly sweetener.
