Ingredients

  • 1/2 cup unsweetened almond milk
  • 3/4 cup pure maple syrup plus more to taste
  • 3/4 cup raw cacao powder or unsweetened cocoa powder
  • 1/4 cup almond butter creamy
  • 1/4 teaspoon peppermint extract
  • 1 pinch sea salt
  • 4 avocados medium, pitted, and peeled

Method

  • Throw the milk, maple syrup, cacao powder, almond butter, peppermint extract, and salt into your KitchenAid(R) Power Plus(R) blender container, secure the lid, and process on variable speed 4 for 5 to 10 seconds until well combined. Add the avocados, secure the lid again, remove the center lid cap, and insert the tamper.
  • Holding the tamper in place with a firm grip, process on variable speed 11 for 20 to 30 seconds, using the tamper to guide the ingredients through the blades until smooth and creamy.
  • Spoon the mixture into four dessert bowls or cocktail glasses, and chill in the fridge for a couple of hours.
  • Serve topped with the hemp seeds or blanched almonds.
