This is sooo good! So rich and the avocado gives it such a lovely texture. I added orange zest also which gives it such a lovely orange taste. -
Made this today. Tastes delicious (really, I'm amazed) but its still really green. Completely green in fact! What did I do wrong?! I followed all the quantities. And added some extra raw cocoa to be sure. But its still bright avocado green :( -
I tried out this recipe. It's so delicious! Here's a picture of the one I made: http://putbeautytowords.blogspot.ca/2013/03/healthy-delicious-chocolate-pudding.html -
For sure going to try this. I've been trying to eat more avocado but not a huge fan so hopefully mixing it with a few other things will help.
Thanks,

Yummy! I'll try this! I made a similar chocolate mousse using avocados! Mine doesn't use any sugar, just optional agave. Try it and let me know what you think! http://www.liveitmag.com/yummy-guilt-free-chocolate-mousse/

Can you make this pudding without avocado? Possibly replace it with something else, or leave it out completley? -
