NOTE: Don’t be tempted to use old avocados with brown flesh instead of green… they leave a weird smokey aftertaste not intended or pleasant! If you flick the stem off the top of an avocado the feels perfect, you should see beautiful mint green flesh, nothing brown!
NOTE II: I have also made this with soaked Medjool dates, and less honey (about 8 dates with 4T honey). If I want it sweeter for a different crowd, I often just add drops of stevia liquid! If you want a very thick pudding, cut back on the coconut milk.

- 1 cup coconut milk (I have used regular and light with no discernible difference)
- 6 tablespoons unsweetened cocoa powder (I love Dagoba)
- 2 fresh, ripe avocados, smallish
- ¼ cup honey, or more to taste (coconut nectar or maple syrup would also work)
- Dash of salt (this heightens the chocolate flavor)
- Puree the whole mixture in your blender until creamy and smooth. Feel free to add more cocoa or sweetener to suit your tastes.
- Fill your molds, freeze, or store in the fridge for a yummy pudding!!

When her third child was born with severe food allergies, Tessa took to the kitchen to figure out how to feed her family well. Always up for a culinary challenge, their journey has taken many twists and turns! Lots of Paleo, and lots of top 8 free. Good food for families, that's what she's about!
I used Almond Chocolate milk instead of the coconut milk and my avocado hatin neighbor devoured it!
Sounds awesome!
I have heard of using avacados but have not yet tried it. They certainly look delicious, I’ll have to give it a try. Visiting from Domesblissity link up – have a great weekend!
Please do Nicole, you won;t believe how they hide in there! Thanks for visiting!
YUM! Tessa, we are so on the same wavelength with frozen chocolate delights that get their creaminess from healthy ingredients.
My latest recipe on my blog didn’t use avocado, but I used some last night to make egg-free cookies. Worked like a charm, but I need to tweak a bit still.
Happy Friday the 13th! xo,
