Why It's So Good For You

Raw cacao is one of the world's most potent sources of antioxidants and is rich in minerals! Not to mention the healthy fats you'll get from the avocado, and fiber to fill you up.

Ingredients

(use organic ingredients where possible)

  • 2 medium-sized ripe avocados
  • ⅓ cup raw cacao powder, or more to taste
  • 5 fresh dates, pitted and roughly chopped
  • ¼ cup coconut milk, nut milk or filtered water
  • 1 tsp vanilla extract
  • Pinch of sea salt
  • Toasted coconut threads, grated dark chocolate or berries to serve (optional)

Directions

  1. Soak the dates in warm water for 10 - 30 minutes to soften.
  2. In a blender or food processor, add the avocado flesh, dates and milk, vanilla, salt, and cacao powder.
  3. Blend until smooth.  
  4. Adjust ingredients to taste, adding more cacao powder if needed.
  5. Serve and garnish with your choice of toppings.
