Have you ever tried avocado pudding? If you’re a fan of the creamy texture and rich flavour of a good chocolate pudding, you’re in for a real treat with this recipe. This recipe replaces traditional higher fat ingredients such as heavy cream and butter with heart-healthy avocado, without skipping on the ultra creamy and delicious texture that you crave in a pudding! Trust us, you won’t even know it’s made with avocado!

Yield: 4 portions
Prep time: 15 minutes
Cook time: chill in the fridge for at least an hour, over night is best.

Ingredients

• ½ cup of melted dark chocolate chips

• ¼ cup of brown sugar

• 2 tsp of vanilla extract

• 1 pint of raspberries to garnish

Instructions

1. Place avocadoes in a food processor and process until smooth. Scrape down the sides if needed.

3. Process all the ingredients until the mixture resembles a smooth consistent pudding.

4. Place chocolate pudding into small serving dishes of your choice and place in the fridge to chill for at least an hour.
