Many people wouldn't think of the combination of avocados and chocolate. But the rich creamy texture of an avocado lends itself nicely to desserts like fudge. Not only are they healthier, but your mouth won't even miss the oil it replaces. Here is a great recipe for avocado fudge.

From Quick Guide: Candy Kitchen
Difficulty: Moderately Easy
Instructions

Things You'll Need:

  • 1 large ripened avocado
  • 1/2 cup margarine
  • 1 1/2 tsp. vanilla
  • 1 1/4 cups cocoa
  • 3 cups powdered sugar
  • Saucepan
  • Food processor
  • Baking pan
  1. Step 1

    Melt the margarine in your saucepan over a medium flame.

  2. Step 2

    Peel and puree the avocado mixture in your food processor until the consistency of the avocado is smooth.

  3. Step 3

    Combine the avocado, vanilla, cocoa and powdered sugar into your saucepan with your melted margarine. Slowly stir in these ingredients until the mixture is thick.

  4. Step 4

    Pour the mixture into a baking pan and place in the fridge overnight so the fudge can harden.

  5. Step 5

    Remove the fudge from the fridge and cut into one inch squares and serve.

Tips & Warnings
  • Use non-stick spray on the baking pan so that the fudge does not stick to the bottom while hardening.
  • Chop walnuts and sprinkle them on top of the fudge mixture after pouring it into the baking pan. This is a great source of Omega 3.
