Friday night treat

Ingredients

Makes 2 servings

Method

A five-minute chocolate mousse — rich, creamy, deeply chocolatey, and nobody ever guesses the secret ingredient.

The recipe: 1 very ripe avocado, 2 tbsp cocoa, 2 tbsp honey, 2-3 tbsp milk, 1/2 tsp vanilla, pinch of salt. Blend 1-2 minutes until completely smooth. Chill 30 minutes, top with berries.

Health benefit

Rich and creamy with no cream at all — the avocado brings the silkiness and healthy fats, the cocoa the deep chocolate flavour.
