Chocolate Avocado Mousse

This recipe has all of the creamy, fluffy, chocolate goodness of mousse without the guilt! I've used avocados as the base which means this dessert is full of healthy fats, protein, vitamins and minerals, and fiber! What's not to love about a dessert with nutritional benefits? 

I made this chocolate avocado mousse for dessert on new year eve and it was a huge hit! I topped it with fresh raspberries and chopped dark chocolate.
