I have been making a lot of fruit “ice creams” and puddings lately.  They can be so addictive!

Today, I decided to make this German chocolate cake pudding because I wanted to use some of the pecans I just purchased.  I just love chocolate with pecans and coconut.  And, my daughter ate this up with a huge bowl of strawberries.

It is healthy, creamy, chocolatey, and a bit coco-nutty.

Avocados are not just for guacamole anymore!

Check out these other sweet avocado recipes on my blog:

• Chocolate Avocado Green Smoothie
• Avocado Ice Cream

Ingredients:

• 2 avocados (ripe)
• 2 frozen bananas (ripe)
• 2/3 cup of frozen blueberries
• 2 teaspoons of vanilla
• 9 pitted medjool dates
• 3 tablespoons of unsweetened shredded coconut
• 4 tablespoons of raw cacao (chocolate powder)
• 1/4 cup of finely chopped pecans

Note: if you want to keep this “raw”, just use raw pecans and un-toasted coconut.  But today, I cooked the pecans in my wok greased with a little bit of coconut oil and TINY pinch of of celtic sea salt.

Directions:

1. Place all ingredients in your Vitamix (except for the pecans).
2. Blend it all together until smooth (no lumps).
3. Pour the pudding into a bowl.
4. Mix in your pecans.
5. Serve and enjoy!
