In the spirit of full disclosure, I would call myself an avacadoholic. My day seems almost empty without one. While they’re typically a savory treat on my plate, I’m never one to shy away from a twist on the usual, especially when that so-called twist involves chocolate. Count me in.
Chovocado Pudding
vegan, gluten-free
1 ripe avocado
1/4 cup cocoa powder
1/4 cup raw agave nectar
1/4 cup almond milk
1 teaspoon vanilla extract
- Peel and quarter a ripe avocado.
- Put all the ingredients in your beloved Magic Bullet (or a blender/hand mixer) and blend until smooth.
- Serve and enjoy!
*This recipe is perfect for two servings. Or perfect for one person with their feet propped up on the couch watching Nip Tuck re-runs.

What a great pudding and I love that the ingredients are things that I normally have on hand!
This sounds amazing. I'm always looking for dessert ideas to make for a friend who doesn't do wheat or dairy. This is perfect! I'm "pinning" it for future reference. Thanks!

Holy Cow! That looks amazing!
I would never even know that there's avocado just by looking at it. It looks like the ultra creamiest chocolatiest pudding ever. I have a sweet treat linky party going on at my blog till Monday night and I'd love it if you'd come by and link your pudding up. http://sweet-as-sugar-cookies.blogspot.com/2011/06/sweets-for-saturday-21.html
How innovative this is! I will try this recipe. Thanks!
This pudding is delicious! Best I have had (even of those w/o avocado). I searched for this recipe for my 4 year old who just had her tonsils out and can only tolerate soft foods right now. She only wants ice cream but I wanted more substance for her. Thanks!
a question...
Since when one makes guacamole, the avocado goes black on you if you don't add lemon or lime... do you have to eat this right away? Can it keep for a bit? A day? You will probably insist it won't last that long but I would love to know.
Thanks!
an answer...
The avocado may turn ugly colors without the acidity of lemon or lime on it's own, but that doesn't mean it goes bad. It just looks pretty gross. Same goes with the pudding; Though with the cocoa powder, it's dark and chocolaty anyway.
That means- YES! By all means, keep it (in a sealed container) in the fridge for a couple days. It will be perfectly fine! :)
Hope that helps!!
Did you use raw cocoa powder or regular? I tried a recipe very similar to this. I used raw cacao. I liked it, but my friends didn't. Wondering if non-raw cocoa would have been a little better. I'll try that next time.
I was sooooooo excited to make this for my 19 month old who is allergic to milk....he's not a fan, which was disappointing to me...I, however, greatly enjoyed it, and think it's a great treat for moi!
I also put some nutmeg in it. Yummy!
