Is chocolate mousse your guilty pleasure? With this recipe the guilt should fade rapidly. This very easy recipe does not contain any of the traditional ingredients such as egg, butter, sugar and cream. Despite that, this is a surprisingly tasty alternative. And it’s very local as well, with only raw cacao not being produced in Zambia. The fact that this recipe is full of healthy and local ingredients should be enough reason to eat more chocolate mousse than ever. Or at least to try it once.
Ingredients for 4-6 servings
2 bananas
2 avocados
80 g cacao powder
2 tbsp honey
To serve
20 g chocolate
Fresh mint

2. Put the bananas, avocados, cacao and honey in a food processor or (hand) blender and process until the mixture is smooth and creamy.
