What You’ll Need

Main Ingredients:

🥑 Ripe Avocados – The secret to the perfect mousse texture. Make sure they’re soft but not overripe.
🍫 Unsweetened Cocoa Powder – This gives it that rich, dark chocolate taste.
☕ Instant Coffee or Espresso Powder – Adds a mocha twist and enhances the chocolate flavor.
🍬 Powdered Sweetener – Use erythritol, monk fruit, or allulose for a smooth finish.
🥛 Almond Milk (or Coconut Milk) – Helps blend everything together.
🌿 Vanilla Extract – A little vanilla makes everything better.
🧂 Pinch of Salt – Balances the sweetness and makes the flavors pop.

Optional Add-Ins:

🍫 Sugar-Free Chocolate Chips – Melt them in for extra richness.
🥜 Peanut Butter or Almond Butter – For a nutty twist.
🥥 Shredded Coconut – If you love a coconutty flavor.

Step-by-Step Instructions

Step 1: Prep Your Ingredients

Cut the avocados in half, remove the pit, and scoop the flesh into a blender or food processor. Make sure your avocados are ripe for that creamy texture.

Step 2: Blend It Up

Add cocoa powder, instant coffee, sweetener, vanilla extract, salt, and half of your almond milk. Blend until smooth. Scrape down the sides as needed.

If the mixture is too thick, add more almond milk, a tablespoon at a time, until it’s silky and smooth.

Step 3: Taste and Adjust

Before you transfer the mousse to bowls, do a quick taste test. Need more sweetness? Add a bit more powdered sweetener. Want it extra chocolatey? Toss in a little more cocoa powder.

Step 4: Chill (If You Can Wait)

For the best texture, pop the mousse into the fridge for 30 minutes. But if you can’t wait, go ahead and eat it right away!

Step 5: Serve and Enjoy

Spoon the mousse into small bowls or glasses. Top with whipped coconut cream, a sprinkle of cocoa powder, or a few chocolate shavings.

Tips for the Perfect Keto Mocha Avocado Mousse

💡 Use Overripe Avocados With Caution – They should be soft but not brown inside. Too ripe, and they might have a strong avocado taste.

💡 Blend Well – If you see lumps, keep blending. The smoother, the better.

💡 Chill for the Best Texture – It gets even better after sitting in the fridge for a bit.

💡 Sweetener Choice Matters – Powdered sweeteners dissolve better than granulated ones, so your mousse isn’t grainy.

💡 Make It Ahead – It stays fresh in the fridge for up to 2 days, making it a great meal-prep dessert.

Variations and Add-Ons

🍓 Berry Bliss – Top with fresh raspberries or strawberries for a tart contrast.

🥥 Coconut Mocha – Use coconut milk instead of almond milk and top with toasted coconut flakes.

🍫 Extra Chocolatey – Melt some keto-friendly chocolate and swirl it in before serving.

🔥 Spicy Mocha – Add a pinch of cinnamon or cayenne for a warm kick.
