Chocolate Avocado Pudding/Icing (yes, it can be both, it tastes THAT good)

I have always been so skeptical of using avocados for sweet tasting things.  I was worried they would taste too avocado-y... if you know what I mean.  I'm not a huge fan of avocados, well, at least not until today! 

Up until now I've used them for mainly 2 things - guacamole (of course) and a honey-sweetened dressing I've had at sushi restaurants (also pretty darn tasty).  But, today, my eyes have been opened and I'm a believer!  That creamy texture really can be used for the awesomeness that is usually ridden with dairy and refined sugar... i.e.: pudding and icing.  

It's good.  Really good.  And make from avocados.  Which are good for you.  So that's great, right? :)

And, best of all, this recipe has 3 ingredients.  Just 3. Which makes it easy.

So, to sum up, this is easy, healthy, and delicious.  Can't get any better than that!  

Total time: 5 minutes

Ingredients:
1 ripe avocado (would work for a single serving as shown in picture)
1/4 cup maple syrup (or another sweetener of choice)
1 heaping tablespoon cocoa powder

What to do:
1) Add all ingredients to a food processor, blender, or mixer.  Blend until smooth and chocolate-y looking! Taste to be sure! 
2) Enjoy now or cover and refrigerate until ready to enjoy! I'm not sure how long it would last, but most likely not after a day or two.
