Vegan Chocolate Pudding/Mousse Recipe


Ingredients:
2 ripe avocados, pitted and peeled
4 teaspoons unsweetened cocoa powder
2 oz dark chocolate, melted (semisweet will not get the same results)
3 Tablespoons maple syrup, more or less to taste
2 teaspoons vanilla
1/8 teaspoon salt
1/4 cup (more or less) coconut milk, well-stirred; or use any non-dairy milk you like

Instructions: 
Put everything but the coconut milk in a food processor and blend it up! Add only enough coconut milk to get the consistency you want, bearing in mind that it will thicken as it chills. The more liquid you add, the more pudding-like it will be; less liquid will make it more mousse-like. 

As far as the chocolate goes, the higher quality the better. You may also increase the quantity of both the cocoa powder and the melted dark chocolate for more intensity. 

Chill for several hours before serving (if you can wait that long...but the taste really does improve when the flavors have a chance to meld for a while).
