Instructions
Note: Use some nice dessert dishes and make sure they are freezer proof!
Halve the avocados and remove the stones. Scoop the flesh into a food processor. Add the cacao powder, vanilla essence, agave or honey, and blend to make a velvety chocolate mousse. Pop in the fridge while making the base.
Place the nut butters, salt and Agave in a pan over a low heat and mix together until you have a thick paste. Taste to check the balance of sweet and salt and add more if desired.
In some glass serving pots dollop the nut butter mix into the base and smooth. Take the chocolate topping out of the fridge and put on top with a palate knife or similar. Put the desserts into the freezer for at least 2 hours. Take them out approx 30-40 mins prior to serving and leave out at room temperature. Serve with a raspberry or two on the top!
