Keto Chocolate Avocado Mousse – 4 Ingredients, 5 Minutes
I never thought avocado could turn into something so chocolatey that you’d forget all about sugar. This mousse is my go-to quick pleasure – thick, silky, full of healthy fats, completely sugar-free, and ready in minutes.
It’s perfect when you have a ripe avocado and no mood for cooking. And at the same time – it’s a dessert packed with nutrients that actually matter. No empty calories here.
🥄 Ingredients (2 servings):
- 1 ripe avocado
- 2 tablespoons unsweetened cocoa powder
- 2–3 tablespoons coconut or almond milk (or water)
- 1–2 tablespoons erythritol or other keto-friendly sweetener
- (optional: a pinch of vanilla, a pinch of salt)
🔧 Instructions:
- Cut the avocado in half, remove the pit, and scoop the flesh into a blender.
- Add cocoa, milk, and sweetener.
- Blend everything until smooth and creamy. Add more liquid only if needed.
- Taste and adjust the sweetness. A small pinch of salt can enhance the chocolate flavor!
- Serve right away or chill in the fridge – after an hour, it becomes even thicker and more chocolatey.
🧠 How not to mess it up:
- Use ripe avocado – otherwise, the texture may be lumpy and the taste bitter.
- Choose quality cocoa – the better it is, the less sweetener you’ll need.
- Don’t add too much liquid – add one tablespoon at a time for the right consistency.
- If you don’t like the taste of erythritol – use stevia drops or xylitol (keep away from pets!).
💡 Tips and Variations:
- Add a spoonful of peanut butter for a creamier, more filling version.
- Add a shot of espresso – it becomes a rich mocha mousse.
- Top with chopped nuts, coconut flakes, or fresh raspberries.
