Another holiday, another opportunity to master the art of avocado-based desserts! My family loved the pumpkin mousse filling I used in my No Bake Pumpkin Pie this past Thanksgiving so I was inspired to create its decadent and sophisticated cousin: Double Chocolate Mousse.
While this one can’t technically be classified as ‘raw’ since it does require a teeny bit of heat, it is 100% whole foods plant based and sooooo simple! Oh, and I promise it does not taste like avocado.
