Chocolate Avocado Fluff

Ingredients

1. 14 oz.  can coconut milk (do not shake)

2. 1 c. mashed avocado (from about 2 Hass avocados)

3. 8 oz. bittersweet vegan chocolate, melted (or Lilly’s milk chocolate or choc. chips)

4. 2 tsp. maple syrup

5. 15 oz. can chickpeas

6. 1/3 c. stevia granules

7. 1/2 tsp. cream of tartar

8. 1 tsp. pure vanilla extract

9. unsweetened cocoa powder, for serving

Directions

1. Scrape ½ cup coconut cream (the solidified top in a can of coconut milk) into a blender. Save liquid for another use. Add avocado, chocolate, and syrup and puree until smooth. Transfer to glasses and refrigerate until chilled.

2. Meanwhile, prepare “fluff”: Drain chickpea liquid into the bowl of a stand mixer (reserve chickpeas for another use).

3. Add stevia and, using the whisk attachment, mix on medium until white and foamy.

4. Add cream of tartar and vanilla, increase to medium-high, and beat until stiff peaks form.

5. Serve mousse with a dollop of fluff. Dust with cocoa powder, if desired.
