Time 2h20m

Yield 4 to 6 servings

6 ounces semisweet chocolate chips (about 1 cup)
4 large egg whites
4 medium Haas avocados, peeled and pitted
1/2 cup agave or honey
1/3 cup coconut milk
1/4 cup cocoa powder
1 tablespoon vanilla extract

Steps:

  • Melt the chocolate in the microwave or over a double boiler. Set aside to cool slightly.

  • In a food processor fitted with the blade attachment, blend the avocados until very smooth, scraping down sides if necessary.

This avocado mousse is really easy to whip together and has so much rich, tangy, and zesty flavor. Super versatile, my favorite ways to use it are as a taco, burrito bowl, or fajita topping, or switch it up for a salad dressing (it's particularly good in a Cobb salad), a dip for a crudite platter, or spread on a sandwich or burger.
