Avocado Tofu Chocolate Mousse

What's not to love about a healthy dessert made with plant-based vegan goodness like this tasty avocado tofu chocolate mousse? It's great for a snack or it's elegant for dinner guests and so easy to put together. You'll be out of the kitchen in a flash.

Low fat and sugar desserts are sometimes hard to find but this chocolate mousse is a classic that's often made with just tofu but I've added one avocado to mix it up and add a little good fat. Chocolate is a healthy addition to your diet unless you're sensitive to caffeine. I like to use cacao instead of cocoa.

The difference is that cacao is not roasted and therefore retains more of its enzymes and has more antioxidants. You can, however, use cocoa if you prefer. And you may have heard that chocolate is, for the most part, good for you, although it does contain some caffeine so if you're sensitive you may not want to have any late at night. It usually contains sugar and fat so eat sparingly.

It really is dark chocolate which has the most antioxidants containing "up to 2-3 times more flavanol-rich cocoa solids than milk chocolate" according to the Harvard School of Public Health.

Tops with some delightful raspberries or strawberries for beautiful color and a pop of flavor.
