Most people would like to enjoy a delicious and healthy chocolate dessert without skipping the diet.

If you are reading this post, surely you are one of those people.

So pay attention to some of the desserts that you can prepare with chocolate as the main ingredient.

Now, as with any other dish, the ingredients are the key.

And, for the cases that we present below, You should choose chocolate that has at least 80% cocoa, and that does not have added sugars or unhealthy fats. Remember, the goal is to enjoy a healthy postre.

Now we start with the vegetarian mousse as the first dessert.

1. Vegetarian chocolate mousse

This first dessert, suitable for vegetarians, has a somewhat different texture and creaminess “thanks” to the avocado, and its ingredients are as follows:

• 520 g of avocado (without skin or bone). It is important that these are at their point of maturity
• 90 g of honey (you can use a little more or less after preparing your first vegetarian mousse
• 40 g of pure cocoa powder
• 160 g of oat, almond or other vegetarian milk
• A pinch of vanilla extract
• Hazelnuts
• Ounces of Dark Chocolate (+ 70%)

Of course, You can substitute oat milk for cow’s milk, although in that case it would cease to be a vegetarian dessert.

Crafting

To prepare it, you just have to prepare the avocados, removing the bone and chopping them. Then add them to the blender along with the honey, cocoa and milk. Lastly, add the vanilla extract. Serve it adding some dark chocolate shavings as toppings along with the hazelnuts and enjoy.

2. Light chocolate curd

The second dessert that we present to chocolate lovers will be ready in less than 10 minutes, and you will only need:

• 900 g semi skimmed milk
• 40 g of cocoa. Minimum 80%, although the higher the percentage of cocoa, the healthier it will be and without sugar
• A sweetener to suit the chef
• 2 envelopes of Royal curd

Crafting

Put ¾ parts of the milk in a saucepan and pour the cocoa powder and saccharin into it. The rest of the milk can be left in a glass. Heat the saucepan over medium-high heat until boiling (you must stir the saucepan).

In the glass of milk, add the curd envelopes and beat until dissolved.

Next, once the milk boils from the saucepan, remove it from the heat and add the milk with the curd. Again, put the saucepan back on the fire until it boils (while stirring), and once it comes to a boil, remove the saucepan from the heat. Stir it for a minute and put it on the fire again.

And this time yes, when it comes to a boil, remove the saucepan from the heat, stir it and distribute it among the diners.

3. Dates dipped in raw chocolate

We finished with this dessert for which you will only need 3 ingredients, so we can say that this is as simple to prepare as it is delicious. Its ingredients are:

• 20 medjool dates
• 10 walnuts
• 200g of dark raw chocolate

Crafting

Heat water in a saucepan and meanwhile begin to chop the chocolate, placing it in a bowl. Without letting the water come to a boil, melt the chocolate in a steam bath and place it in a mug, so that later you can wet the dates and cover them with chocolate.

Once it has “half melted” (it should be creamy, but not melted), cut the dates in half, removing the bone, and insert these in the middle of a walnut and then cover a baking tray with the baking paper. .

To finish, cover the dates with chocolate so that it crystallizes quickly. To do this, prick the dates with a fork and insert them (one by one) into the cup of chocolate.

Let these solidify, and voila.

Now that you know some of the chocolate desserts that you can prepare, let’s remember the most important of all:

• The percentage of cocoa that the chocolate must contain must be at least 80%.
• It should not contain added sugars or unhealthy fats.
