So what are you waiting for let’s learn how to make Mini Pavlova with Chocolate Avocado
Mousse and Berry Syrup.
Start by making the pavlova; separate the egg whites from the egg yolk, add a pinch of salt
to the egg whites and beat it up with an electric mixer until it forms soft peaks,
Gradually incorporate the erythritol into the egg whites until the mixture looks shiny
and it forks hard peaks
add the lemon juice
and the vanilla extract and mix until everything is well incorporated.
Draw the outline of the pavlovas on a baking sheet by using a drinking glass as a measurement
With the help of a tablespoon, fill in the outlines with the egg white mixture; one outline
should held two tablespoons of the mixture
Preheat oven at 150 C or 302 F
Bring the temperature down to 110 C/230 F and bake for 1h and 10 minutes; check to
see if they harden enough; if not, bake them for an additional 10 minutes
While the pavlovas are baking, prepare the mousse by melting over a pot with hot water
the chocolate and the butter
once it’s melted, add the cream and the cocoa powder and stir well, freeze for 30 minutes
mash half an avocado very well and add it to the cooled mixture, mix everything with
a hand mixer until it forms hard peaks; set aside
In a saucepan, bring together the frozen berries, erythritol and a splash of water; simmer
on low for 15 minutes; set aside
Once the pavlovas are done, allow to completely cool down on a baking rack
When cooled, pipe some of the mousse on top of the pavlovas; add some fresh berries on
top and some mint leaves and drizzle some berry sauce on
