I'm serious, this pudding tastes really close to the traditional instant chocolate pudding, only this recipe has 4 great benefits!
1. It is totally raw- full of health benefits
2. You don't feel guilty after eating it
3. It's fun and easy to make
4. It is full of Omega 3
I should add, the only downfall is, if you are a weight watcher, you don't want to eat a whole lot because it could add some substantial calories... On the other hand, if your metabolism is anything like mine, if your looking for something to slow it down, avocado's are great!!!
Recipe:
6 Avocados pitted
1 cup maple syrup
1 cup cocoa powder
1cup milk
1 tsp vanilla
Begin by mashing all the Avocados with a potato masher. Then mix all ingredients together, blending until smooth with a hand held electric mixer for several minutes. You want to get it as smooth and creamy and get out as many avocado lumps as possible.
Enjoy chilled, garnished with chopped walnuts, raspberries, homemade whipped cream, etc...
Special note: original recipe called for using a blender, but I found that a hand held mixer does a much more thorough job getting the lumps out.
Another healthy variation you can do is half cocoa powder/ half carob powder, and half maple syrup/ half sucanut. :)
Enjoy!!!
