Chocolate Avocado Mousse

Serves: 4|Prep: 10 min

Chocolate mousse with a delicious healthy fat boosting twist. Never too young or old to enjoy this yummy mousse. Serve as a treat for breakfast on the weekend, an after-school snack or a healthy after dinner dessert. For an extra fun option, place mousse in popsicle moulds and freeze. I love adding avocado to children’s diets as it is an excellent source of monounsaturated heart-healthy fats. So be sure to make extra for the whole family to enjoy.
