Chocolate avocado mousse!

Today, I was watching a cooking show and this recipe caught my attention. This mousse is just simple, elegant, and healthy. I happened to have all the ingredients or the closest ones and tried to make it. It turned out great. Do try.







Ingredients:
Ripe avocados- 2 no.
Chocolate chips-1/2 cup.
Coco powder- tbsp.
Vanilla extract- 1-2 teaspoon.
Almond milk/ regular milk- 4-5 tbsp/ as required.
Honey/ agave- 1/4 cup.
Salt- a small pinch.

Method:
First bring a pot of water to boil and into this pot place another pan with chocolate chips in it, so that the chips melt from the heat of the hot water. Take care not to let any water enter the chocolate. The chocolate chips will melt in few minutes.
Once the chips melt let them cool.
Cut the ripe avocado and remove the inside flesh. Take the avocado, melted chocolate chips, coco powder, honey, vanilla extract and milk into a food processor and process till smooth paste. Add milk as required to get a mousse consistency.
Pour the mousse into a bowl or into individual ramikens and chill them in the fridge for 1 hr and serve them cold.

Note:
I have used honey instead of agave and regular milk instead of almond milk.
But still the taste was good. So do try the other ingredients if you like.
