I’ve said it before, but living in the Avocado Capital of the World has it’s perks.  This time of year, the avocados are dropping from the trees and rolling in the streets.  This super food is the perfect substitute for butter.  Not just in this recipe, but in almost any recipe from banana bread to pasta sauce.

Here’s a few of my favorite avocado “surprises”!  Banana Bread with Avocado – hands down, one of my favorite recipes.  You’ve got to try it.  Here’s the link: https://wp.me/p9KEfL-jK

Salted Avocado Fudge

Line a 8 x 8  pan with parchment paper, leaving some hanging for the sides so that when it’s done, you can easily pull it out of the pan to cut.  Set aside.

Into a medium saucepan over medium heat add 3 cups of chocolate chips.  You can use dark chips, or semi-sweet.  If you’re vegan, make sure to use vegan chips.   Add 1 cup of unsweetened cocoa powder, 1 1/2 cups granulated sugar or coconut sugar, 2 teaspoons of vanilla and 3/4 teaspoon of kosher or sea salt.   Stir frequently until all is melted.  Set Aside.

 

 

Into the bowl of your food processor or blender, add your 4 medium size ripe, pitted avocados, that’s about 3 cups of avocado.
