This Vegan Chocolate Mousse recipe is easy, healthy, and oh so satisfying. The avocado makes it rich and creamy, and the cocoa powder gives it a deep, chocolate flavor. The natural sweetness comes from dates. Top with whatever fruit is in season, or transform it into a fruit dip by decreasing the amount of plant milk.
