Yum, Yum, Yum! Chocolate Avocado Ice Cream!
I have been getting really cheap avocados lately and can't eat them fast enough.
A while back, a friend of mine told me about a recipe in The Sneaky Chef that used avocado and was an ice creamy type recipe. It had a frozen banana, some avocado, cocoa powder, and a little sweetener and very little milk. I have made "ice cream" with the frozen bananas before, pretty much like that, without the avocado. And I make thick smoothies with frozen bananas and strawberries and chocolate soy milk all the time. I expected this to pretty much be the same, but wanted to use up the avocado left over from lunch, so I tried it. Wow!! I could not believe the difference! The avocado made it so smooth, thick, and, well, creamy. And it had that fatty. lickable ice cream feeling, which is what I think has been missing from my banana ice cream. Next co-op order, I am going to get a box of bananas and avocados and make a big batch and freeze it in the ice cream ball.
