Chocolate Avocado Pudding

I love avocado.  And I love chocolate.  So when I started seeing recipes pop up for chocolate avocado pudding on various websites I was instantly intrigued.  Would avocado and chocolate really taste good together?  I had to find out.

I whipped together my own version of chocolate avocado pudding and gave it to the Englishman who has declared he doesn’t like avocados (except in guacamole).  He ate the entire thing proclaiming how good it was.  It was until after he finished that I told him the pudding base was avocado and he was shocked since you can’t taste the avocado at all.

I did a similar experiment on family members a few days ago and the verdict was the same – delicious pudding and no idea there was avocado involved.

Moral of the story is that you need to make this chocolate avocado pudding.
