These really are BITTERSWEET and rich, you’ve gotta like that bite. To sweeten them up add more agave or sub in sugar or honey to taste.

There is a wonderful recipe for a chocolate mousse with avocado, almond milk, honey, vanilla bean, water and instead of cocoa real cacao. I am Mexican and for me the use of avocado is very specifi. Was searching for a recipe with no raw eggs, pareve and on the healthy side. It is interesting, rich in flavor and very creamy I will try your recipe for Pesaj.

Hi Rebecca I hope you enJOyed and I would love to try that other recipe you mentioned.
yes you can!
yay!
Hi,I’m thinking about making this recipe for Pesach. Would i be able to use cottonseed oil instead of olive oil in this recipe?
Yum. Looks amazing! Can’t wait to try for Pesach!
Hi (also in Israel) – yes to taste!
love the sea salt!
you must!
you do!
Hi,
In Israel, can i use honey instead of agave?
Amazing! Easy to make and tastes great with sea salt.
O.M.G. these look insanely delicious! I can’t believe they’re so healthy. Must. Make. ASAP!
yum! gonna have to try these.
hi Maxine — that sounds AMAZING!!! I hadn’t thought of that trick. Would certainly make these more expensive but probably more thick and creamy. What does she use to sweeten?
I will definitely try this. My niece, who is a raw food vegan makes something similar when she comes over for Pesach. In place of the oil and water she uses avocados. You have to use a lot of them, but they do NOT add any taste, just a wonderful creamy texture.
Wow. This looks amazing and so quick to put together!
