Super Sweet Avocado Treat!

I have about 7 things I COULD post today...but...I will only post this one and the one I already post below so keep scrolling!  I am preparing many more posts in the coming days and weeks!  Yes!  I have been BUSY!  But I'm also having a lot of FUN keeping busy!

If you didn't notice the title of this one you were probably wondering what the heck this green blob is, eh!?  Well, it's a Super Sweet Avocado Treat!  This is the stand alone version of this and I will be combining it with other ingredients for an upcoming post for a dessert.

You could probably call this a mousse or a pudding or a custard, I suppose.  Here is what is IN it, tho...

2 Avocados
1/4 C Coconut Oil
2 T Cacao Powder (I grinder it myself in a mini coffee grinder I use as a spice grinder)
2 T Maca Powder (from Foods Alive)
1 T Vanilla Flavored Agave Syrup (from Wholesome Sweeteners)
2 T Coconut Nectar (from Coconut Secret)
1/2 Scoop GoL Raw Perfect Food (Regular Flavor)

All in my Ninja!  It was SO SO SO Sweet and So flavorful.  It's VERY rich.  This will last me a while...I only ate a few tablespoons because it was so sweet.  But it fulfilled my sweet tooth last night that is for sure!

Most likely over the weekend I will be posting a 2nd recipe using this Avocado as the "body" of my dessert!  So stay tuned!

  1. I love avocado. I wonder how much they cost there. Here, it's mighty expensive - over US$3 EACH. You probably can get a sack of them there at that price.

    1. Since I'm on the east coast they are fairly expensive. Right now the are around $1.50 to $2 depending on where you get them in most places. The one place I tend to get them - because they are cheaper - right now they are 99 cents each.

  2. What a heavenly blend! This sounds like such a lovely thing to spread over toast. I'm in luck, too, since I caught a $1/avocado sale recently and still have two on hand.

  3. Thanks for stopping by my blog so I could discover yours! I don't like avocado plain, but have come to adore it in dessert form. Avocado mousses / puddings like this are amongst my favourite quick and easy treats to whip up. I love your addition of maca powder here!

    1. Thanks! I'm trying to do more mousse desserts with them and I have also been trying to add Maca into a few things since I do have a nice amount of it on hand.
