Silky Smooth Vegan Chocolate Mousse

The secret to this rich, silky mousse? Avocados. They whip up impossibly smooth and add healthy fats, and I promise you won't taste them. A double dose of chocolate, dark chocolate plus cocoa powder, gives it deep, decadent flavor. Best of all, it's an easy make-ahead dessert, so you can whip it up the day before and spend your evening with your guests instead of in the kitchen.
