Vegan Chocolate Pudding, Gluten Free
You will need a food processor for this recipe. This will make the ingredients silky smooth and irresistible. Use perfect ripe avocados. Do not use any over ripe or blackened fruit.
- 300 gm Avocado de-seeded skinned (2 large)
- 100 gm dark chocolate chopped , I have used 70% but you can use any other good chocolate
- 1/2 teaspoon vanilla extract
- 40 ml maple syrup or more to taste.
Put the chocolate into a bowl and melt it in the microwave in 1/2 minute bursts, or over a double boiler. Set aside but dont let it get cool.
Put the avocado into a food processor and purée till creamy.
Open up the lid and add the vanilla and chocolate and 1 Tablespoon of maple syrup ( or honey). Purée till well combined. Taste and add more sweetener if you like.
Spoon into 2 x cup sized containers or 3 smaller ones.
Do not use a darker chocolate than 70 %.
Make sure the chocolate is a really good quality
