I want everyone I know to know about this yummy recipe! My first exposure to avocado chocolate mousse was back in January at a restaurant called Duo on Maui for my 35th birthday dinner (we were also there for our babymoon — I’m 32 weeks pregnant today!). I picked Duo because it was right next to the resort we stayed at and had a health-conscious menu.
I’m not vegan but love trying vegan recipes. I also got the mushroom pasta alfredo off the vegan menu for my entree and it was delicious! Still working on replicating that recipe.
After we got home I Googled best vegan chocolate mousse recipe and found this gem. My recipe below is inspired by that recipe. It is perfect! My husband and I agree that this tastes better than prepackaged pudding snacks and I guarantee it is infinitely healthier!
Ingredients
- 3 avocados
- ~ 1 cup unsweetened almond milk
- 1/4 cup unsweetened cocoa powder
- ~5 scoops stevia
Directions
- Add avocados to blender (I use a NutriBullet) and enough of the almond milk so the blender blends the ingredients.
- Add cocoa powder and stevia. Add more of the almond milk — enough that the blender can blend everything together. Taste test and enjoy!
As you can see, this is such a simple recipe that is so yummy and good for you! You really can’t argue with any of the ingredients, which I love. I usually make a batch with 1 or 2 avocados (whatever I have on hand) and adjust the other ingredients accordingly. I haven’t had a bad batch yet!
I hope you enjoy! Let me know what you think if you try this one!
Wow, who knew you could make a dessert out of avocado!
Yes! Avocado makes everything creamy and it’s weird that you can barely taste it 🙂
Thanks for sharing this awesome recipe. I am definitely making this on the weekend!
Great! Enjoy!

Yum! I’m always looking for ways to make being vegan more tolerable lol Thanks, I’ll try this!
Awesome 🙂 Ya there are so many tolerable/good vegan recipes out there to discover 😉
I’ve tried a couple desserts with avocado and I’m super excited to put this on my list of recipes to try! I love that it is keto friendly and so easy to make!
Yes it’s definitely one for most diets I would say and the easiness factor can’t be beat 🙂
I am definitely making this on the weekend! Thanks for the awesome recipe! Seriously can’t wait to try it…and possibly get my kids to eat avocado!
Great! I honestly need to make a batch for our kids. I’m curious what our toddler will think – she does love avocado and chocolate pudding so we’ll see 🙂
Sounds delicious
Thanks – it is!
Congrats on baby, yay! Maui is lovely. My sister lived there for a while before she moved back to LA.
