Ingredients
  

2 ripe avocados

1/2 cup unsweetened cocoa powder

1/4 cup maple syrup (or honey)

1/4 cup almond milk (or your choice of milk)

1 teaspoon vanilla extract

A pinch of salt

Optional toppings: sliced bananas, chopped nuts, or shredded coconut

Instructions
 

Prep the Avocados: Start by halving the ripe avocados and removing the pit. Scoop the flesh into a food processor or a mixing bowl.

    Add the Ingredients: Add the unsweetened cocoa powder, maple syrup, almond milk, vanilla extract, and a pinch of salt to the avocados.

      Blend Until Smooth: If using a food processor, blend all the ingredients together until you achieve a silky smooth consistency. If you don’t have a food processor, you can use a fork or a potato masher, but blending will yield a creamier result.

        Taste and Adjust: Taste the spread; if you'd like it sweeter, feel free to add more maple syrup or honey to your preference. Blend again if you add anything.

          Chill (optional): For a cooler spread, let it chill in the refrigerator for about 30 minutes. This helps to enhance the flavors.

            Serve: Serve your Healthy Chocolate Avocado Spread in a bowl. You can enjoy it on whole grain toast, pancakes, or as a dip for fruits and veggies. Top with sliced bananas, chopped nuts, or shredded coconut for extra texture and flavor.

              Store Leftovers: If you have leftovers, store them in an airtight container in the fridge for up to 3 days. To prevent browning, press plastic wrap directly onto the surface of the spread before sealing.
