Notes
Either medjool (large and soft) or deglet noir dates (small and usually drier) can be used. If your deglet noir dates are hard, you will need to soak them in warm water for 30 minutes first.
1/2 cup is about 12 deglet noir or 4-5 medjool dates. The smaller dates will be lighter and weigh about 80 grams while the large ones will be heavier (about 100 grams) and also sweeter.
This recipe yields about 2.5 cups of mousse (650 grams).
For parties: Best served in 1 or 2-ounce (30-60 milliliters) shot glasses or dessert cups.
Garnish with fresh cherry or chocolate shavings and fresh mint leaf.
The sweetness of this chocolate avocado mousse will depend on the sweetness (ripeness) of your produce. With medjool dates, you should get a sweeter mousse than with deglet noir. If you prefer a sweeter taste, add a sweetener of your choice: agave, date syrup, maple syrup or honey are delicious options.
