  • too easy to taste THIS good

    I am so glad I came across this recipe and look forward to making it be my go-to potluck contribution. I plan to pipe the mousse into mini cupcake liners or hollowed strawberries and topping them with nuts, coconut flakes, white chocolate, candied ginger...and so on. So amazing, thanks!

  • Wow!

    I have been wanting to try a chocolate avocado mousse receipe for a long time. I found this recipe online and I had all the ingredients, so I was finally able to give it a try. Wow! It is very chocolatey and super quick and easy to make. I didn't have any strawberries, but I think they would be a perfect addition or maybe fresh orange zest mixed in.
