Chocolate Mousse

Dedicated to my health conscious and sweet tooth friends!
A fabulous recipe is perfect for vegans and anyone on a dairy-free diet. Instead of full-fat cream and eggs, London-based healthy food business owners and sisters Melissa & Jasmine Hemsley, use a very Brazilian combination of avocado and banana!

Ingredients (use organic ingredients where possible)

• 1 chilled ripe hass avocado
• 1 frozen, medium-sized, ripe banana
• 3.5 tablespoons of raw cacao powder
• 2 - 3 tablespoons of raw honey
• 1 teaspoons of fresh lemon juice
• 1 teaspoons of vanilla extract
• 2 tablespoons of chilled water
• 1 tiny pinch of sea salt
• 1 bar of chilled sugar free dark chocolate - to decorate

Instructions 

1. This is an instant recipe, just keep a stock of sliced bananas in your freezer. If you only have a hand blender use unfrozen bananas, blend and then pop each serving into the freezer for an hour or two and remove 15 - 20 minutes before eating.
