The Avocado Chocolate Mousse tart is a simple make-ahead tart. It delivers lush, chocolately flavour with a hint of avocado, with all the benefits of the fibre and vitamins! I always forget how stunning a tart can be, even when made with simple ingredients. Tarts present a lovely visual with about 1/3 of the work […]
