3tbsporganic sweetened dark chocolate cocoa powder OR unsweetened plus 1 tbsp organic cane sugar or maple syrup
1/4cupcoconut milklight or regular
1tsppure vanilla extract
1/8tspHimalayan sea salt
Instructions
Place the chopped chocolate or chocolate chips in a saucepan or double boiler and melt, watching carefully to avoid burning
Scoop the avocado ‘meat’ into a food processor with a steel blade or a vita mix
Add the coconut milk, vanilla extract, melted chocolate, cocoa powder, and sea salt to the processor
Blend until very creamy
Spoon into parfait cups – or my fave – mini mason jars
Lick the spoon!
Chill for 1-3 hours depending on how thick you’d like it to be
Serve topped with a sprinkle of sea salt, strawberries or raspberries, and for a little extra exotic ‘sexiness,' a sprinkle of either cinnamon, cardamom powder, or a dash of chili powder!
Notes
Serves 4 (about 1/4 cup each). Don’t let the small amount fool you – it’s rich!
