Ingredients

Paleo Chocolate Mousse

1 large ripe avocado
2 tbsp unsweetened cocoa powder
2 tbsp maple syrup
1/2 tsp vanilla extract
1/8 tsp sea salt

Stuffed Strawberries

1 pint strawberries
Optional toppings: coconut flakes, crushed nuts, chocolate chips, chopped dried fruits

Instructions

Halve the avocado, remove the pit, and scoop out the flesh into a blender.
Add cocoa powder, maple syrup, vanilla extract, and sea salt to the blender and blend until smooth and creamy.
Refrigerate until ready to use.
Cut the bottom end of the strawberries where the stems are attached, so they can stand upright.
Use a knife or kitchen shears to cut an X at the tips of the strawberries about 2/3 of the way down.
Place the chocolate mousse in a piping bag with a tip of your choice.
Pipe the chocolate mousse into each strawberry. Sprinkle with your choice of toppings, if using.
Serve immediately or refrigerate until ready to serve.
