No Bake Avocado Chocolate Pie
This is a creamy, delicious and rich no bake avocado chocolate pudding pie recipe courtesy of the Eden Health Retreat Destination Spa in Queensland, Australia. It’s easy as can be with ingredients made in your food processor, relies on dates and almonds for the crust, and avocados, coconut oil and cacao for the rich filling.
Ingredients
Pudding / Filling
- 3 avocados
- 3 tablespoons cacao powder
- 2 tablespoons honey
- ⅓ cup coconut oil

- ½ cup almonds
Instructions
- For the filling, add coconut, cacao, avocados, coconut oil and honey to a food processor and mix until all ingredients are well blended.
- Pour this mixture into dessert cups, or, if serving as a pie, into the base. In either case, refrigerate for 1 hour before serving.

This one wasn’t a keeper. Might try the pudding again when it isn’t winter and skip the pie component.
