Healthier holiday sweets with Fresh Thyme Market

Meghan Sedivy, Registered Dietitian from Fresh Thyme Market, demonstrates how to make a creamy avocado chocolate mousse. To make, you will need, 1/2 cup bittersweet chocolate chips (melted), 4 ripe avocados, halved, seeded, and peeled, 2/3 cup Fresh Thyme organic maple syrup, 1/2 cup unsweetened baking cocoa, 1/4 cup almond milk, 2 teaspoons vanilla extract, 1/8 teaspoon Fresh Thyme fine sea salt and fresh pomegranate seeds and mint, for garnish. To make the mousse, start by melting the chocolate chips in a microwave-safe bowl on medium heat, stirring every 30 seconds until smooth. Then, combine the avocados, melted chocolate, maple syrup, cocoa powder, almond milk, vanilla extract, and sea salt in a blender or food processor. Blend until smooth, and let it chill in the fridge for two hours. When you’re ready to serve, top it with fresh pomegranate seeds and mint for a festive pop of color.
