A lovely Chocolate Avocado Pudding Recipe

chocolate avocado pudding served with fresh cut strawberries

I learned to make a few dinner party recipes in Marni Wasserman's cooking class last week and decided to then re-make the entire dinner for my family this weekend, including this awesome Chocolate Avocado pudding ...

2 avocados
1 tbsp vanilla extract
2 tbsp maple syrup
4 medjool dates (soaked overnight or in boiling water for 20-30 minutes)
1 tbsp pure unsweetened cocoa powder
1 tbsp almond butter
1 very ripe banana
1 tsp of cinnamon

Blend all ingredients together in a food processor on high until well blended, thick and creamy.  Enjoy!
