Recipe adapted from Two Peas & Their Pod
Start to finish: 3 hrs 10 minutes
How Many: 4 servings
What you’ll need:
1 cup unsweetened almond milk
2 ripe avocados peeled and pitted
1/3 cup plus 1 tablespoon unsweetened cocoa powder
1/2 cup plus 2 tablespoons pure maple syrup (less for a dark chocolate version)
2 teaspoons vanilla extract
1/4 teaspoon ground cinnamon
Pinch of salt
Raspberries or other berries for garnish
What you’ll do:
Put the almond milk, avocados, cocoa powder, maple syrup, vanilla extract, cinnamon, and salt into your blender and puree on high for 30 to 60 seconds, until smooth and creamy. You may need to stop and scrape down the sides with a spatula.
Transfer the mousse to glasses, ramekins, or jars and chill in the fridge for at least 3 hours. To serve, top each pudding with fresh raspberries or other berries you have on hand.
Notes:
It’s best to eat the pudding the day it’s made because the avocados will oxidize and change flavor over time.
Remove any brown spots on the avocados before you start.
