DECADENT CHOCOLATE MOUSSE

3 avocados (should be soft to touch, but not mushy)
8-10 Organic Medjool Dates
1 t vanilla extract
Dash of sea salt
3 Tablespoons VivAgave Cocoa Powder
4-5 T Raw Cacao Powder (adding more or less depending on your love of chocolate; remember, raw cacao is very bitter because it contains no processed sugars or milk so start with less and add more until you have reached a desired flavor!)
In food processor, process avocados until creamy. Add in dates and process until avocado and dates are fully incorporated. Add in vanilla, sea salt, and VivAgave Cocoa Power, and cacao powder. Blend until avocado and remaining ingredients are fully incorporated; you will probably have to stop and scrape down the sides to make sure the entire avocado makes it into the mousse.
Optional: top with Cacao Nibs or soaked and dehydrated Buckwheat groats for that extra added "crunch"!
