Ingredients
  

2 ripe avocados, halved and pitted

1/3 cup unsweetened cocoa powder

1/4 cup maple syrup (adjust according to your sweetness preference)

1/2 cup almond milk (or any plant-based milk of your choice)

1 teaspoon pure vanilla extract

A pinch of fine sea salt

Optional toppings: shredded coconut, chopped nuts (such as almonds or walnuts), or fresh berries (such as raspberries or sliced strawberries)

Instructions
 

Begin by cutting the ripe avocados in half and carefully removing the pit. Use a spoon to scoop the creamy flesh from each half and place it into a food processor or high-speed blender.

    Next, add the unsweetened cocoa powder, maple syrup, almond milk, pure vanilla extract, and a pinch of fine sea salt to the food processor.

      Blend the ingredients on high speed until the mixture is completely smooth and creamy. Stop to scrape down the sides of the bowl as needed, ensuring all ingredients are well incorporated. Taste the pudding and adjust the sweetness by adding more maple syrup if desired.

        After blending, check the texture of the pudding. If it feels too thick for your liking, add a splash more of almond milk and blend again until you reach your desired consistency—velvety and smooth.

          Spoon the luscious pudding into individual serving dishes or small bowls. Place them in the refrigerator to chill for at least 30 minutes; this allows the flavors to meld beautifully and for the pudding to firm up slightly.

            When ready to serve, take the pudding out of the fridge and garnish each serving with your choice of shredded coconut, a sprinkle of chopped nuts, or a handful of fresh berries for a delightful finishing touch.
