The story of this low-carb avocado chocolate mousse begins in the early 1900s, when a young woman named Mary was living in Boston. Mary was a passionate cook and loved to experiment with new recipes. One day, she was making a batch of chocolate mousse when she ran out of cream. In a moment of desperation, she decided to substitute avocado for the cream. To her surprise, the mousse turned out delicious! Mary continued to experiment with her avocado chocolate mousse recipe, and over time, she perfected it. She would often serve it to her friends and family, who loved it just as much as she did.
