Ingredients
2 Ripe avocados, large (or 2 cups of flesh from smaller avos)
180 g Pure Maple Syrup
30 g Coconut sugar or rapadura sugar (or 2-4 tbsp to taste)
2 tsp vanilla essence
1 tsp balsamic vinegar
1/2 tsp tamari sauce (can use soy sauce if not GF)
2 tbsp Cold-pressed virgin coconut oil
75 g raw cacao powder
Preparation
1.
Place avocado flesh in the TM bowl. Puree for 20secs on Sp 5. Scrape down sides of bowl and repeat.
(This step is optional, but I find it gives a much smoother end result)
2.
Add remaining ingredients except cacao powder & blend for 1 min, 37C, Sp 6. The slight heat helps to melt & emulsify the coconut oil.
3.
Add cacao powder & blend for 30 secs on speed 6. Scrape down sides of bowl with spatula & taste mixture. Adjust balance of flavours if required then mix for another 30 secs on speed 6 or until the mousse is totally smooth & glossy (using spatula to assist if required).

4.
Can be served straight away (fantastic with fresh strawberries) or refrigerated for a firmer dessert.
Here, it is served with strawberry coulis (from the EDC) & vanilla bean icecream.
Tip
My daughter used non-stick egg rings as a mould for the dessert in the main picture. This recipe can also be used as a vegan ganache when cold.

Raw cacao is the best food source of magnesium & this is such a yummy way to eat it! Most people would never guess the ingredients in this rich dessert - don't tell them it's (relatively) healthy

I've frozen it and its yummy
I've frozen it and its yummy to pop out into little bite sized cubes or I play to whiz it for an ice cream texture.
Wow! I loved this. Super
Wow! I loved this. Super easy, dairy and gluten free. I'll be making it again! I added a little pomegranate molasses in place of the rapadura because I didn't have any.
You could add a little chilli powder too if you were keen to give it a bit of extra kick.
i have frozen half in cube trays and next time I feel like ice cream I can give it the sorbet treatment in the thermi and voila!!
Yum yum!
I did enjoy this mousse -
I did enjoy this mousse - especially the texture but found by adding orange zest it enhanced the flavour so much more. Will also experiment with mint next time. A very healthy alternative to the normal choc mousse and easy too! Thanks for a great recipe - will make this when I need a choc fix. I wonder how it would freeze? Will have to give it a go when I make a big batch!
That sounds delish, Nic

I made this today and piped it into little chocolate cups and then topped them with a raspberry each. Competely delicious and no one could believe there was avocado in it! Thank you so much for such a yummy and nutrient rich gluten and egg free dessert, it was a pleasure to make and eat.
Sorry for the delayed reply,
Sorry for the delayed reply, Paula. I took a bit of a break from the world of Thermomix
Rapadura sugar could be used instead. You could even use raw sugar, but I posted this recipe with a focus on the most nutrient-dense options possible. Both coconut sugar (& rapadura) & coconut oil are available from Health Food Stores or online. You can also get coconut oil in the Asian food section of major supermarkets. I'm not sure that other oils would work so well. As the coconut oil solidifies when cool, it adds to the texture of the dish. Liquid oils would result in a much runnier/softer mixture that would not set firm enough to shape in any way.

This is really yummy!! The
This is really yummy!! The kids had no idea it was avocado. My son was alarmed when I finished making it and he saw me putting it in a bowl that had a smidge of avocado in it, but I didn't spill the beans...
I substituted a few items for whatever I had in the house. I used a bit of treacle and golden syrup instead of maple syrup, I used whole cacao nibs and ground them at the start, and I used Bragg All Purpose Seasoning instead of Tamari (because the bottle had fallen over and I couldn't find it!). The cacao gave it a really nice slightly crunchy texture.
I think I will try it next time we have people over...

I made this last nigjt for a dinner party and it was incredible!! I couldn't stop eating it!! It's SO delicious!
I used 100g of honey in place of the maple syrup and it worked perfectly.
I served it in martini glasses with a thin layer of sweetened cream and strawberries. I highly recommoned this recipe to anyone. It is very easy and very yummy!
Thanks for the recipe!!
Yep, agave will work fine,
Yep, agave will work fine, too. I think the original recipe uses agave if my memory serves me correctly (which it doesn't always). I prefer the lower fructose level of maple syrup, which I is why I use that, but any similar syrup should yield a similar result
I'm glad you liked it

Yummmmm. I ran out of maple syrup, so I used about 70gm of argave instead. Tasted awesome. Will make again for sure. Thanks.

Yes, definitely one of those recipes where the bowl gets VERY well cleaned before it's even washed
