I'm having fun trying out all these new (and improved!) recipes....since I have such a major sweet tooth (pathetic, really), vegan desserts is where I began to experiment first. I figured I'd better get my sugar cravings under control and what better way to do that than with vegan/ all natural/ non-dairy/ non-refined white sugar treats! Now I don't feel so guilty if I got a hankering for something sweet because the ingredients are kind on the intestines and my body loves me!
So, I started my journey with chocolate...(because, duh! I already had some cocoa on hand!) and so chocolate/avocado pudding was soon under wraps in my kitchen! The texture was incredible- silky, smooth, creamy, decadent and velvety. I know what you're thinking...avo-"what?!". But don't worry, if you make it right, the avocado disappears on the tongue and you're left with an incredible treat. The avocado simply gives it that "oomph" that we love so much about pudding. Although this turned out more like a mousse, which, trust me, I ain't complainin' about! I think next time I'll use a little more vanilla, the main ingredient to help disguise the green stuff! Usually vanilla extract is to be used sparingly, but with this stuff you can go crazy! My sister hated it, of course, but I really do have fun using her as my tester! lol! Maybe one day she'll have fun, too ;)
