Chocolate Avocado Pudding
This is truly the easiest chocolate pudding ever. And healthy too. All you need are a few ingredients and a blender.
Ingredients
- 1/2 ripe avocado, roughly chopped
- 2-4 tablespoons unsweetened cocoa
- 1/4 cup light brown sugar, lightly packed
- 1/3 cup milk, preferably whole or 2%
- 1/2 teaspoon vanilla
- 1 tablespoon semi-sweet chocolate chips, melted
Instructions
-
Put all the ingredients in a blender or a bowl if using an immersion blender. Blend until smooth. Put in small serving cups.
-
Chill in the refrigerator if you prefer the pudding cold.
Recipe Notes
I melt my chocolate chips in a microwave, which took about 1 minute 45 seconds at half power, but the timing and power depend on your microwave.
This pudding is quite rich. I serve it in small espresso cups.
To keep the second half of the avocado (the half you're not using) from turning brown, leave the pit in it, spread a drop or two of fresh lemon juice on the part of the avocado “meat” that is exposed to air and refrigerate upside down in a small bowl.
