AVOCADO ~ Chocolate Orange Mousse

INGREDIENTS

2 small avocados

1/4-1/3 cup fresh squeezed orange juice

1 tablespoon grated orange rind

3-4 tablespoons cocoa powder

1/2 cup chocolate chips

1 tablespoon stevia or other sweetener

1/8 tsp salt

INSTRUCTIONS

1. Place the chocolate chips in a bowl. Place over a small saucepan of barely simmering water. Stir until the chocolate is melted and smooth, about 3 minutes. Set aside to cool.

2. Place the melted chocolate, avocados, orange juice, grated orange rind, coca powder, sweetener, and salt in a food processor. Blend until smooth, scraping the side of the bowl as needed. Spoon into glasses or place in a pastry bag fitted with a star tip and pipe into glasses. Refrigerate for at least 3 hours. This is especially pretty if piped into a hollowed shell of half of an orange. I would suggest not to freeze this one.
