# Expert suggestions:

01 -
  • It's ready in ten minutes flat, which means dessert whenever you need comfort without the fuss.
  • This mousse tastes indulgently rich while actually being good for you, no guilt required.
  • You probably have everything in your kitchen already, making it perfect for unexpected guests or midnight cravings.
02 -
  • Overblending is almost impossible, but underblending leaves grainy bits that ruin the whole vibe, so keep going until it's genuinely smooth.
  • The avocado flavor disappears completely once the chocolate sets in, so don't worry that it sounds strange—trust the process.
03 -
  • Dutch-process cocoa powder is worth seeking out if you love chocolate—it has a smoother, more sophisticated flavor that transforms this from good to remarkable.
  • Don't skip the chilling step if you can manage it, because cold mousse tastes more luxurious and the flavors have time to settle into something more refined.
