    Chocolate Avocado Mousse to Whip Up for Sugar-Free Dessert

    7
    By Alisa Fleming on January 12, 2020 Dairy Free Desserts, Dairy-Free Recipes

    Every year, a new dietary trend takes center stage. And this year, so many of you are clamoring for sugar-free everything! Keto became a buzzword last year, but that extremely low carb diet is often dairy heavy. Fortunately, there are lots of delicious ways to enjoy something sweet sans sugar and dairy. This dairy-free, sugar-free chocolate avocado mousse, for example, is a quick and easy fix to satisfy rich and creamy dessert cravings.

    Chocolate Avocado Mousse to Whip Up for Sugar-Free Dessert

    There are many low carb desserts out there, but most contain dairy. This creamy mousse is dairy-free and uses sugar alternatives to keep the sugars down. I do have some tips on the ingredients to help you locate them, and substitute if needed.

    Dairy-Free, Sugar-Free Chocolate Avocado Mousse Ingredient Tips

    Avocados – Make sure you use very ripe avocados with no bruising. They should still give just a bit when touched.

    Coconut Milk – Use full-fat canned coconut milk for the creamiest results. Coconut milk beverage is much thinner and will produce more of a pudding. If using full-fat coconut milk, you can refrigerate the mousse for 1 to 4 hours. It will thicken.

    Chocolate Chips – Unlike unsweetened chocolate chips, sugar-free chocolate chips are sweetened with a sugar-free sweetener. Lily’s Dark Chocolate Chips are the most popular dairy-free, sugar-free brand, but we have more options in our Dairy-Free Chocolate Chip Guide.

    Sugar Substitutes – Pure stevia is way too strong at that quantity. You need to use a prepared version that made for substitutions, or simply add it to taste. You might opt for an Erythritol-Stevia Blend to cover both ingredients, or you can just use one sugar substitute to taste. Many people like Swerve.

    Low Sugar instead of Sugar-Free? – If you simply want to reduce sugars, but don’t need sugar-free, you can substitute any of the sugar-free sweeteners with your favorite sweetener. You can also use regular, dairy-free dark chocolate chips.

    This recipe does use sugar alternatives and sugar-free chocolate chips. See the post above for tips and options. Also, all ingredients should be at room temperature to make blending smooth and easy.

      I’d love to make this today! But I’m wondering if I could use a different natural sweetener instead of the erythritol? Perhaps honey or coconut sugar?

        Yes, of course! I would sweeten to taste. You might want to use more.

          All I had was Swerve for sweetener and it came out amazing. I’ll definitely make this again and again. 😋

      I love this recipe! Avocado makes it so creamy and full of flavor, and the chocolate ratio is right on.
