Decadent Vegan Chocolate Mousse

Submitted by ben0wilson

"Many non-Vegans think of Vegan foods, especially the desserts, as not as desirable, to put it lightly, as non-Vegan desserts. However, as an omnivore myself, I can assure anyone looking for an amazing chocolate mousse recipe, look no further. The fats and sugars in this recipe are either natural or unprocessed, making this, as most desserts go, rather healthy."

Although I'm not at all a fan of the avocado, I have made other chocolate desserts using it, so was intrigued with the possibilities here! We thoroughly enjoyed the mousse (delicious) & I'd happily make it again, as I know my vegetarian & vegan friends/relatives would enjoy this, too! Thanks for posting the recipe!
