Secret Ingredient Easy Chocolate Mousse (Low Carb, Keto)
Secret Ingredient Easy Chocolate Mousse Recipe (Low Carb, Keto) – Create your amazing and incredibly easy chocolate mousse! The secret ingredient creates a whipped mousse that’s secretly healthy. I bet you will not even be able to guess the secret ingredient!
So what’s the secret ingredient? Any guesses? AVOCADOS!! Avocados are like gold around here, we hoard them and do not waste them! I didn’t want to add avocado to the title of this recipe because I knew you wouldn’t try it if it had avocados in it, my family at least wouldn’t. It also wasn’t my idea to add the avocado to the recipe in the first place until I noticed it had to be used soon.!!
These easy chocolate mousses be perfect to serve at a birthday party, as well! So easy and delicious!
