Low Carb Dark Chocolate Avocado Espresso Mousse Cake
Although this cake uses an intensely, rich dark chocolate, it is still the perfect end to a meal thanks to its delightful lightness, derived from the whipped egg whites and avocado. This rich and creamy cake is even more delicious when topped with freshly whipped cream. The espresso brings out the fruitiness of the dark chocolate, making this a super satisfying dessert. The recipe calls for a particular brand of chocolate and sweetener, as it is lower in carbs. Feel free to substitute in your own dark chocolate, but look for 85% or higher.

Blek! A lot of trouble to make and tastes like foot! Needs some added flavors to mask egg and avocado

All I can say is you did something wrong or your feet taste damn good!! I made this for a friend’s birthday and no one complained about a thing. I fixed it following the recipe exactly.

Do you think cinnamon and vanilla would help?
