Description

This creamy, rich healthy chocolate frosting is naturally sweetened and made with wholesome ingredients.


Ingredients

Scale
  • 2 medium ripe avocados (Pitted and Peeled)
  • 1/2 cup unsweetened cocoa powder
  • 1/2 cup pure maple syrup
  • 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
  • 1/8 teaspoon salt

Instructions

  1. Place the avocados in a food processor or high-speed blender, making sure the avocados are very soft.
  2. Add the cocoa powder, maple syrup, vanilla extract, and salt right on top of the avocado base.
  3. Blend all ingredients together on high speed for about 2 minutes, stopping halfway through to scrape down the sides of the bowl with a rubber spatula until no green bits remain.
  4. Taste the mixture and if you like it sweeter than it is, add another tablespoon of syrup and mix for a few more seconds until combined.
  5. Scoop the frosting into a piping bag or spread it directly onto the cooled cake or cupcakes.
