If you love chocolate—this smooth dessert is a guiltless treat! It’s nutritious too because the avocado is a great source of healthy monounsaturated fats.

MAKES 4 SERVINGS (EACH ½ CUP)

½ cup (125 mL) skim milk or non-dairy milk

1 oz (30 g) semisweet chocolate (or 2 tbsp/30 mL semisweet chocolate chips)

2 small ripe avocados, peeled and pitted

3 tbsp (45 mL) unsweetened cocoa powder

¼ cup (60 mL) reduced-sugar pancake syrup

½ tsp (2 mL) vanilla


1. Place milk and chocolate in a microwave-safe bowl and microwave on High for 20 seconds until melted; stir until smooth.

2. Use an immersion blender in the bowl or transfer to a blender. Next add the avocados, cocoa, syrup and vanilla to the milk and melted chocolate. Blend for 10 seconds until smooth.
