Raw Chocolate Pudding with Sweet Dukkah

I have to admit this is a recipe I never thought I would make. I find vegan and raw “cooking” interesting but always said I draw the line at using avocado as dessert. But this recipe for Raw Chocolate Pudding with Sweet Dukkah was part of the recipe when I discovered the fantastic Chocolate Dukkah I posted a few weeks ago.

The chocolate pots on Faring Well looked so delicious I decided to try it and see what it tastes like.It is smooth and creamy and certainly chocolatey. But you have to make sure you are using the best avocados you can find and the best quality cacao powder as the taste of the pudding will be compromised. Use perfectly ripe avos that are not stringy and with no dark spots. The taste of the dark spots will come through in the pudding.

I tweaked the recipe and replaced the almond milk with coconut milk. I refrigerated the coconut milk to scoop off the cream as a topping and used the left over milk/water to mix with the avo. I used maple syrup to sweeten the dessert but think a mashed banana or two is a great option to sweeten the pudding. To intensify the chocolate flavour, I added some espresso powder to pudding mix.

If you do not want or have to keep it vegan you can replace the coconut milk and cream with a dairy alternative. I do think the pudding needs texture so sprinkle it with the chocolate dukkah or some chopped toasted nuts of your choice. Enjoy!
