Chocolate Mousse Tart

Chocolate Mousse Tart
(adapted from recipe Rawlicious thermomix booklet)
Crust Ingredients
80g shredded coconut
300g macadamias or almonds (can be soaked and dehydrated if you have a dehydrater)
65g dates
pinch sea salt
1 tablespoon cold pressed almond oil or organic coconut oil (if not dehydrating nuts may only need a little to no oil)
Method
Place coconut in Tm bowl and mill for
10 seconds on speed 8
Add remaining ingredients and mix for
1 min on speed 9
Using MC push base into pie plate or cake tin and put into freezer to set
Filling ingredients
Flesh of 3 large avocados or 4 small
30-50g Cacao powder (50 g makes it very rich)
100g agave syrup
good pinch of sea salt
Filling method
Place all ingredients into TM bowl and blend for
1 minute on speed 6
until smooth. Scrape down sides and repeat.
Spread the filling mix on top of prepared crust and garnish with strawberries or other berries and mint leaves.
Refrigerate for at least 1 hour.
Variations
Would be lovely with a fruit/berry puree as a layer on the crust first and then the mousse. Alternatively you can slice bananas onto the base before filling.
Notes
I don’t have a dehydrator so I did the crust with raw macadamia’s and it turned out well but is probably moister than if using dehydrated nuts.
The mousse is really smooth and moussie. No avocado flavour or taste was detected at all and would pass as chocolate mousse to people who didn’t know. Was delicious and got the thumbs up from the raw foodies who tried it.
I would definitely make it again although try with less (30g?) cacao as 50g it was really rich for me.
[I also didn't wash out the bowl and made a yummy choc fruit smoothie from the mousse left in there - adding a banana, apple and handful of strawberries some ice and water

Wow, if that doesn't help convert some of us I don't know what will. It looks delicious.

Have never used 2 of those ingredients in the filling but imagine the filling alone in a little pot would make a nice individual dessert too. I often use fillings of pies and tarts on their own to cut the calories a little.

We made this tart and it was absolutely sensational. You would definitely never know that it was made with avocados. The base was to die for! The only tip I would have is that the middle was slightly runnier than we would like so we put it in the freezer. Then while we are making tea we take out a slice and it is defrosted just enough by dessert time and is just a bit firmer than a mousse and freezing cold - just the way we like it. Thanks for the Recipe Sundari.

Thanks for bumping this Lisa. So the avocado part of it freezes well without discolouring? Sounds like a nice one to keep in the freezer for unexpected guests.

Judy what does bumping mean
I'm sorry. The avocado doesn't discolor at all. You can't even tell. Just looks like frozen chocolate mousse and defrosts well. Would you like me to take a pic of the frozen product and upload?? Its half eaten mind you.

Lisa, when anyone posts a comment on something, the thread automatically comes up to the top of the list and we all get to see the recipe again if we have forgotten it. This is called 'bumping' - there are so many great recipes hidden away on the forum and it's great when someone finds one and brings it to our attention.
Would love to see a picture of a cut piece of this frozen dessert thanks.

Hi Judy. Thanks for the explanation.
Here is the fozen product - sorry that it is half eaten. The green bit in the middle is the mint decoration that got mushed while cutting the frist piece and then got frozen! You can see that it hasn't discoloured and when it partiallly defrosts it goes back to that lovely rich brown colour.
