Healthy and naturally sweetened avocado chocolate mousse topped with sweet cherries.
Summer is here and I have limited time blogging. My boys are home and we are spending lots of time together. So either they will be in front of TV and play station all day –> Me blogging. Or I won’t blog as much and we spend lots of time on bike rides, park and swimming. I want to have as much time with them as I can.
It’s difficult to manage everything at once + home errands, grocery shopping and many more things to do. I’m a little behind on blogging, but this is life and I love to be with my children for the summer. In the meantime, I’m leaving you with this…
Healthy + Naturally Sweetened Avocado Chocolate Mousse. Easy to make with only 5 ingredients and VERY delicious. Try it and you’ll see how good it is.
This avocado chocolate mousse has a pudding consistency which I love. Topped with sweet cherries that are in season right now. It’s perfect for dessert or mid afternoon craving. I get them a lot … the mid afternoon “dessert cravings”. Instead of a big bark of chocolate whip up this sweet mousse. Sometimes I need anything with chocolate and then I’m satisfied. I love coffee desserts too and this Lightened Up Tiramisu Dessert is perfect for mid afternoon cravings.

July 7, 2015 at 3:03 PMI absolutely love avocado everything! I would never have thought to turn it into a mousse. I’ll definitely try this, but maybe without the cherries (i’m allergic, haha). Do you have any recommendations for a different berry that would pair well with the mousse? Thanks so much!
