1/4 cup milk (dairy or non-dairy, like almond or oat milk)
1 teaspoon vanilla extract
A pinch of salt

Instructions
- Blend the Ingredients:
Combine avocados, cocoa powder, maple syrup, milk, vanilla extract, and salt in a blender or food processor. - Blend Until Smooth:
Blend until the mixture is creamy, occasionally scraping down the sides to ensure full incorporation. - Adjust Sweetness:
Taste the pudding and adjust sweetness if needed by adding more maple syrup or honey, then blend again. - Chill:
Transfer the pudding into serving bowls or jars and refrigerate for at least 30 minutes to thicken and develop flavors. - Serve:
Add toppings of your choice, such as fresh berries, nuts, or whipped cream, and enjoy!
Notes
For a richer flavor, add 1–2 tablespoons of melted dark chocolate.
To make it thinner, add extra milk while blending.
Use Dutch-processed cocoa powder for an intense chocolate flavor.
Make it keto-friendly by replacing maple syrup with erythritol or a low-carb sweetener.
