My elementary school-age daughter made me this cocoa mousse tart. This is a simple recipe with no baking.Adjust the sweetness to your preference.We have no food processor at home; instead of using a food processor we carefully mash the avocado and banana to create a creamy texture.The crust is soft when you put it in a tart pan, but it hardens in the refrigerator because of the coconut oil in it.

This is a desert I love making and have made numerous times but tasted only twice. Every time I invite friends for dinner and decide to make Panna Cotta for desert I rarely get to try it, because my guests love it so much. This recipe has very few ingredients and is incredibly easy to make but be certain that it will undoubtedly impress your guests. Since it uses gelatin, it can be served in many different ways so you have the freedom to experiment with the shapes and decorations and make it according to your own taste. As always, send me all of your beautiful photos and make sure to leave a comment.
