Instructions
1Blend all the mousse ingredients together in your food processor until smooth. Add the cacao powder first and, as you blend, have all the ingredients to hand in order to adjust the ratios slightly as the size of avocados and bananas varies so much. The perfect ratio in order to avoid the dish tasting too much of either is to use equal amounts of both.

Chef tips
For a velvety, indulgent texture, use a very ripe, soft avocado and blend it thoroughly in a food processor until completely smooth before adding the cocoa and sweetener. Kids love topping this mousse with toasted coconut or fresh berries. For a twist, try adding a teaspoon of natural peanut butter or some orange zest to complement the chocolate.
