Awesome recipe @janifer3910.   Thanks!

Hey @Elsa,

I LOVE chocolate and not to feel too guilty about it, I like to use healthy ingredients as alternative to dairy, eggs and sugar. So I really love to use avocado when making chocolate deserts! And, it's very easy and quick to make! Here's one of my favourite! 

Total Time: 5m

Yield: 4 servings

Ingredients

• flesh of 2 ripe avocados (240g)
• 1/4 cup regular cocoa powder
• 1/4 cup dutch cocoa OR melted chocolate chips
• 3-4 tbsp milk of choice
• 1/2 tsp pure vanilla extract
• 1/8 tsp salt
• sweetener of choice to taste (I like 1/4 cup pure maple syrup)

Instructions

**You have two options for this recipe: The version with the chocolate chips will be richer; the version with the dutch cocoa (important to use dutch) will be lower in fat and sugar.

Combine all ingredients in a blender or food processor until completely smooth. (Watch the video above to see the recipe being made step-by-step.) I used 3 tbsp almond milk, but if you’re not using a liquid sweetener then you might want to add a little extra for a smoother consistency. If you make it, don’t forget to rate the recipe or leave a review below!

I can tell you it really tastes yummy and is guilt free

@QueenMia I never ever would have thought of combining avocado with chocolate.  Since I love both of them maybe I'll give it a try.  Thanks!

Then you should totally try it, @Elsa

I live in Chicago and the restaurant Portillo's is huge out here!  Their chocolate cake is amazing and people send it out of state as gifts.  It's that good. The secret?  Mayonnaise!  Here's the copycat recipe.

Hi @LissaZee, thank you very much for participating.  This is what your recipe will look like in the Yeti recipe book.  The image was very easy to find so I added it to your recipe.
