Avocado Chocolate Mousse | Fix It with Food by Michael Symon

Chef Michael Symon shares a silky (& dairy-free!) chocolate mousse made with avocado from his latest cookbook Fix It with Food.

"I know it's probably strange to see avocado in a dessert recipe, but it's the secret ingredient to a delectable dairy-free mousse with silky texture," Michael says. "It also gives the mousse an extra dose of potassium. When shopping for coconut cream, make sure you don't accidentally grab cream of coconut, coconut milk, or coconut water, which are entirely different products. Coconut cream is rich, thick, and—duh—creamy, and it's essential to getting the best results. If you can't find coconut cream, you can scoop out the cream that rises to the top of an unshaken can of coconut milk—you'll probably need two or three cans worth."
