Equipment

  • Food processor or high-speed blender

Ingredients
  

  • 2 medium ripe avocados, peeled, pitted and chopped
  • 1/3 cup unsweetened cocoa powder
  • 1/4 cup sweetener of choice (honey, pure maple syrup, agave nectar, etc.)
  • 1/2 cup milk (or any dairy-free milk)
  • 1 1/2 teaspoon vanilla extract

Instructions
 

Prep the Base

  • Halve the avocados, remove the pits, and scoop the flesh directly into the bowl of a food processor or high-speed blender.

Blend Everything Into One Silky Mix

  • Add the cocoa powder, your chosen sweetener, milk, vanilla extract, and a small pinch of salt to the food processor with the avocado.
  • Blend on high for 1 to 2 minutes until the mixture is uniformly dark and creamy. Stop and scrape down the sides of the bowl to ensure everything is incorporated.
  • Continue blending until the pudding is completely smooth and glossy, with no green specks or lumps visible. Taste and adjust sweetness or chocolate intensity if desired by adding more sweetener or cocoa powder.

Chill to Set and Meld

  • Transfer the pudding into an airtight container or individual serving dishes. Press a piece of plastic wrap directly onto the surface to prevent a skin from forming.
  • Chill in the refrigerator for at least 30 minutes for the pudding to thicken and the flavors to meld. Serve cold.

Notes

Storage Tip: Store leftovers in an airtight container in the fridge for up to 4 days. Press plastic wrap directly onto the surface before sealing to prevent the top from browning.
Texture Tip: For the smoothest, most pudding-like result, use a food processor. Blend until completely glossy and scrape down the sides frequently.
Richness Variation: For an extra rich and thick pudding, use full-fat coconut milk as your milk of choice.
