That's right, I said it...chocolate avocado mousse. Stay with me....
1. Avocados are fruits.
2. What do you love most about them? I would venture to say their creaminess.
3. How often does chocolate let you down? I would venture to say rarely.
So, let's take these elements and take a flavor adventure. I think you will find the result rich, creamy, and full of nutritiousness. Oh, and this can be made in 10-15 minutes--instant gratification!
