This dessert is one of my favorites when I’m have to fix something very quickly and it’s totally vegan too … have asked all my guests what they think it’s made off – nobody has got it right so far. So this is a secret I share with you. A while since I did it … but yesterday I was craving for it – never made it .. didn’t have any avocado at home, so that save me those calories … but it gave the idea to make this post. It toke longer time to make the post then it would take to make the mousse. *smile 
5 min job Chocolate Mousse, serves 4
1,5 banana
1 ripe avocado
45ml (3tbsp) nutty butter (almond, hassle or peanut)
60ml (4tbsp) Cacao powder
15ml (1tbsp) chopped dark chocolate
1 pinch sea salt
Just run all the ingredients in a food processor for some minutes until the mixture get a mousse texture. Poor it into nice glasses or pretty cups and put in the fridge for about 30 min.
Decorate with fresh berries for serving.
My music cloud is from the wonderful film “Chocolat” by the Swedish director, Lasse Hallström, the tack is called “Vianne Confronts the Comte Remake”
“All you need is love.
But a little chocolate now and then doesn’t hurt.”

Well that does sound simple! And looks yummy!
It’s yummy and healthy – I’m not much into eating healthy … I love yummy food and especially desserts.
One of my guilty pleasures.
Well that is probably the most interesting recipe I’ve ever seen!
And is made in a blink – try it, J! Very healthy too.
I think it might take me more than one single blink!
Just chuck it all in the food processor .. and in 5 min – done. I promise. Treat yourself. *smile
I will have to find the food processor first!
And that will take time … *smile
wow, that’s it! I’ll go to the kitchen now… Your posts are TOO tasty, I have to go out and find avocado later!!!!
Thanks, Malin … this especially good for high pregnant ladies.
My friend that looks perfect – and I would definitely consider it healthy
Love it!
Cheers

Thanks .. coming from an expert. Hope you will try it.
I don’t like avocado BUT now when I read your amazing post, dear Viveka, there is a beautiful reason for try it again… Seems so beautiful and so delicious. I will make it for weekend, Thank you. And how amazing lady you are, you took me to this beautiful film too now… Love, nia
Nia, you’re so welcome .. I promise you that you want taste the avocado because of the cocoa – and banana.
Please let me know your verdict. *smile
You’re amazing too .. Nia, you share your world of beautiful stuff too.
fabulous, a quick and tasty vegan dessert! How clever to use th eavocado.
And such wonderful images
Thank you … all from google – except the last one that I had on my USB … most recipes I posted so fare have I used google, I can’t cook every dish I done through the years as a chef – I’m dining alone. So it has be with help of ours and google. I have seen it a magazine somewhere, probably when living in UK.
I am keeping your recipe to try one day when I have time… I bet the avocado makes all very creamy, right?
Yes, and the banana .. please, let me know what I think about when you tried.
I will let you know for sure!
No way. It’s this easy? Huh… look at that
You peel the banana and chuck into the food processor with the rest .. and in 5 min is it’ ready. Can it be easier than that.
No. I never thought to see how it’s made, this is nice
It’s a lot more job if you want to do a regular or ordinary mousse .. with whipped cream and melted chocolate.
This is for the fast lane girls … and it taste fantastic.
I like time effective recipes.
So do I ….. when I cook for myself .. with guests I can spend a full day in the kitchen – but still I like tasty food when I’m a lonely diner.
I understand completely. Boy does my back ache when it’s one of those big meals.
My foot aches now .. been hanging with … it too long today – time to go to bed and watch some episodes of “Damage”. A sore back must be terrible to deal and live with. Have a good friend, hairdresser, she had terrible back problems many years ago and her doctor to train her stomach muscles – because they are carrying the back – she done every since and never got her pain back, she was in such bad state most days. Amazing that the stomach as something to do with the back. I feel for you.
I’m sorry about your foot
Hope you enjoyed your show! You know, I need to workout but with my back being a bit out of whack lately I haven’t. Oh yah… our stomach muscles are the core of our body. I it wraps around our entire torso and supports us. It’s very important to keep those muscles in shape. We don’t realize it…
Neither she or I thought about it .. and her back has been fine of over 30 years now. Amazing. I should go to the gym too – but I hate it .. so boring. *laughter – I eat ice cream instead.
It can be very boring at the gym. I work out at home when I do, it’s better and less expensive. I have DVD’s and an elliptical machine. Then I eat ice cream
I’ll have to try this. I’d have never thought of using avocado in chocolate mousse.
It’s fantastic .. I love it this little dessert.
Ok, that’s really interesting. Have to try that. Who knew?
Yes, who knew … I think you will love it. Let me know.
Love bananas, and even more avocado – never got the idea of mixing them together
So i’m gonna try this one!
Oh… and btw – guess which is my favorite film?
Hugs!!
Funny, I have written en replay to you – gone ?????!!!! I guess “Chocolat” – han gör underbara filmer .. den där Lasse. Låt mig vet hur du tycker om moussen.
A good guess
Sant. Och Lena Olin också….måste se Hypnotisören snart! Har du sett den?
….OK – you’ll be first to know
Nej, jag har inte ens hört talas om den .. google har gett mig information nu. Persbrant and Lena är med,underbart. Inte likt Lasse att göra thrillers. Ett måste, tack för tipset. Kommer på biograferna den 28. Spännande.
Det kommer säkert att vara nåt i hans stil i alla fall. Hoppas…
Tror jag säkert … du måste låta mig veta vad du tycker om den – för jag kommer att vänta tills jag kan ladda ner eller hyra. Spännande.
Ha – ha, jag med! Tror inte att jag ska se den på bio – Stefan gillar inte sån typ av filmer (?) – men men…vi laddar ner den (får man säga det in public?
) Vi hyr den föstås…eller köper! 
Okay … vi hyr den *skrattar
ok my friend, i want a fresh dish of this scrumptious dessert shipped to me, lololol
If I only could *smile
i’m not big on avocados, but I think there is enough other stuff in this that I would try it.
Frank, you don’t taste the avocado because of the banana and loads of cocao. There is away the proper recipe – but it takes so much longer to make.
That’s what I was thinking …. so thanks for confirming!
could you ship some to Turkey?
Sweetheart … you do it 5 min – with will take longer time to walk over to the post office. Just everything in the processor and 5 min later – ready!!!!!
I love this recipe, Viveka! I’m making it this weekend for sure. I tried a version of this before, without the banana and nut butter, and it was delicious, but I think yours is going to be even better. Can’t wait to taste it.
Brilliant … please, come back with you verdict – I like the proper ones too – but they take so long time *smile … and all those pots and pans to clean afterwards . here is only one thing to clean.
I couldn’t wait for the weekend- I stopped by the store on the way home from work and got the ingredients so I could make it as soon as I got home. It’s amazing- super creamy and full of rich chocolate flavor. Loved it! Thanks for the recipe.
Thank you, Donna for coming back to me …. glad you enjoyed it – I think it’s a FAB dessert and as you said rich as a chocolate mousse should be.
Thank you for this, Viveka!
You’re welcome!
Wow, this is amazing concoction, Viveka! I never thought that you could add avocado and banana together with chocolate to make a lovely chocolate mousse. Thanks for the tip. Btw, hubby does not eat banana so can I just add more avocado instead?
I don’t think you should double the avocados – too much .. too rich. Any other smooth fruit will go well .. because it replace the cream. Give it ago – but my guess is it will be far too much of the green stuff. Please, let me know.
