This 10 minute easy and healthy chocolate avocado mousse is so creamy and delicious that it’s actually hard to believe avocados in this recipe. It is vegan, paleo, gluten-free, and you can also make a low carb or keto avocado chocolate pudding version.
Avocados are loaded with mono-saturated fatty acids which are good for a healthy heart. Besides, avocados are rich in potassium, fiber, antioxidants, and many vitamins like B, K, C, and E.

Ingredients
- Avocado: For smoother avocado mousse use ripened avocados. But some people also experience a stronger avocado flavor in this pudding by using ripened avocados.
- Cocoa Powder: I have used unsweetened cocoa powder. Always use good quality cocoa or cacoa powder for the dessert.
- Melted Chocolate chips: I have used sugar-free chocolate chips, but can also use Unsweetened Baking Chocolate Bar. If you are not on Keto then use semi-sweetened chocolate chips. Place chocolate chips in a microwave-safe container and microwave till they melt. If you cant find chocolate chips then replace them with the same quantity of regular cocoa powder.
- Milk: I have used unsweetened almond milk for a vegan version of avocado chocolate mousse. You can also use coconut milk or dairy milk.
- Sweetener: I have used Maple syrup, but you can also add honey (if non-vegan) or powdered sugar, or stevia (for Keto).
- Vanilla extract: I have used pure natural vanilla extract.

How to Make Avocado Chocolate Mousse

Puree until completely smooth. The mixture will be thick and mousse-like. Adjust the sweetness according to your preference.
Serve this healthy avocado mousse into dessert cups and top with either fresh strawberries or chocolate flakes.
It’s even better if you refrigerate it for an hour before eating. So good!
