Served here with frozen blueberries (what I had on hand), but fresh strawberries are AMAZING... |
At a vegan dinner party this past week, one of the ladies made this, and it was literally finger-licking good. Not only did we finish it all, but swiped the rest from the bowl with our fingers and licked the spoon clean! This is an incredibly simple dessert with a "wow" factor: it's made from avocados, and it's dairy-free! My version uses local honey, and I enjoyed the consistency with gooey honey....but make it completely vegan by using agave or maple syrup instead. Seriously, your friends, kids, mom or co-workers will NEVER know it's made with avocado...until you tell them. Dr. Oz has this recipe posted...but uses egg whites and sugar (certainly not necessary). I apologize for the bad photo quality - my camera was left at my sisters house last week. :) ENJOY! <3
