AVOCADO DARK CHOCOLATE RECIPES

Steps:

• 1. Place a heatproof bowl over a pan of simmering water, making sure the base doesn’t touch the water.
  2. Break the chocolate into the bowl and allow it to melt, then set aside to cool slightly.
  3. Halve and destone the avocados, then scoop the flesh into a food processor, discarding the skins.
  4. Add the remaining ingredients and pulse for a few seconds. Scrape down the sides with a spatula, then pulse again to combine.
  5. Pour in the cooled chocolate, then pulse a final time until creamy and smooth.
  6. Divide the mixture between six small bowls, then pop in the fridge to chill for at least 30 minutes.
  7. Serve with an extra grating of chocolate and a fresh fruit salad.

Steps:

• Place chocolate in a large bowl set over a bain marie or in a double boiler at a low simmer. Stir chocolate until melted. Turn off the heat and let stand.
• Beat the cream over ice until it forms soft peaks. Set aside and hold at room temperature. With a mixer, whip egg to soft peaks. Gradually add the sugar and continue whipping until firm.
• Remove the chocolate from the bain marie and using a whisk, fold in the egg whites all at once. When the whites are almost completely incorporated, fold in the whipped cream. Cover the mousse and refrigerate for approximately 1 hour or until set. Serve in goblets topped with more whipped cream and shaved chocolate, if desired.
