Ingredients
- 2 whole ripe avocados
- 0.25 cup unsweetened cocoa powder
- 0.25 cup erythritol or monk fruit sweetener
- 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
- 2 tablespoons almond milk
- 0.25 teaspoon sea salt

Instructions
Start by cutting the avocados in half lengthwise. Carefully remove the pits and scoop the flesh into a food processor.
Add the unsweetened cocoa powder, erythritol or monk fruit sweetener, vanilla extract, almond milk, and sea salt to the processor.
Blend the mixture on high until smooth and creamy. Scrape down the sides as necessary to ensure all avocado chunks are blended.
Taste the mousse and adjust sweetness if necessary, adding a bit more sweetener until desired sweetness is achieved.
Once the mousse is creamy and well-mixed, spoon it into serving dishes.
Refrigerate the mousse for at least 30 minutes to set and enhance its flavors.
Before serving, garnish with a sprinkle of dark chocolate shavings if desired.
Enjoy your refreshing low carb creamy avocado mousse!
