Avocado Chocolate Mousse Parfaits

on Mar 19 2023

Ingredients

  • 2 ripe medium avocados (about 410g)
  • ½ cup (50g) unsweetened cocoa powder
  • 6 to 7 TBS maple syrup
  • ¼ cup (60ml) low fat milk
  • 2 tsp pure vanilla extract
  • 1 cupPamela’s Mini Honey Grahams(about a small handful)
  • 6 to 7 medium strawberries, hulled and sliced

Directions

  1. Cut open avocados in half and remove the pit. Scoop the flesh out of the avocado and add to a food processor. Add the cocoa powder, maple syrup, milk and vanilla extract. I used 6 tablespoons of maple syrup, but you can add another tablespoon if you want a sweeter mousse. Blend until smooth.
  2. Scoop mousse into a container and refrigerate for 30 minutes to an hour. The refrigeration helps thicken the mousse.
  3. Add mini grahams into a sandwich bag and seal it. Crush the graham crackers by using a rolling pin or a glass.
  4. Assemble the parfaits by adding 2 tablespoons of graham cracker crumbs into a cup. Alternate with layers of chocolate mousse, sliced strawberries and graham cracker crumbs to build the parfait.
  5. Serve immediately. Refrigerate leftovers for up to 2 days.
  6. Notes:
  7. Because the honey grahams are already sweet, I used less maple syrup (6 tablespoons). If you want a mousse that is sweeter, add another tablespoon of maple syrup, but I wouldn't add any more than that.
