I blogged about this one a little while back, and now I’m back with a recipe! This time I tried it out with some sugar beet syrup that I had come across (it has a dark flavour, like a cross between agave and molasses), and it was great, possibly even better than with maple syrup. However, the choice is yours. Either way, it will make for a decadent, delicious (and sort of comparatively nutritious) treat, and you can pretend it’s actually good for you!
Chocolate Avocado Pudding
2 avocados
¼ cup cocoa powder
¼ cup + 1 tablespoon sugar beet syrup (or maple syrup or agave)
1 pinch of salt
½ teaspoon vanilla extract
Blend the avocados until smooth. Add the remaining ingredients and blend again until completely smooth. That’s it! Chill in the fridge for an hour, or just gobble it up at room temperature. Makes 2 servings.
Variation: add 1 good pinch of cayenne for some heat!
Wow, I would've never thought of combining avocados and cocoa! I'm intrigued. We'll definitely have to try this.
ReplyDeleteOh my goodness! It's the tastiest pudding on earth! Bar none. That smooth, velvety texture is so pleasing to the tongue but it's a sad moment when your spoon scrapes the last little bit from the edge of the bowl! Then it's time to make more! AND MORE!
