Avocado chocolate mousse
Use avocado instead of cream or egg white to make a healthy vegan version of classic chocolate mousse. It's quite rich, so serve in small glass pots or shot glasses, and top with cocoa nibs for an extra chocolate hit without the added sugar.

Method
step 1
Melt the chocolate in the microwave, or in a bowl over a pan of simmering water, then leave to cool for a minute. In a small blender, whizz the avocado until it is a very smooth paste, add 1 tbsp water if you need. Tip into the melted chocolate with the agave syrup and fold in well. Divide between 4 small glasses and chill until you need them. Top with raspberries, cocoa nibs and pistachios to serve.
