A few months ago, I stumbled upon Purely Twins- a great site with lots of raw and vegan recipes. Yum. What caught my eye was their Triple Layer Mini Protein Brownie Cakes. As soon as I saw the recipe, I created it right away and I am so happy I did. Best.Treat.Ever. No exaggeration here. Every time I make this crazy amazing brownie, I gave little E some, but it seemed she was only interested in the avocado part, not the chocolate. Weird, kid!
Back to the kitchen I went and made her, her own little treat. She loves it. She could eat the whole batch in one day, which is most definitely not a bad thing. When she wants some she points to the freezer and tries to say avocado! Too cute.
Don’t mind the picture- when they are in the freezer they actually freezer and get a little crusty, but little E still gobbles them down! They tend to get all green and mushy when she eats them.
Checkout those avocado fudge hands! I told you she loves them.
Avocado Fudge
- 1 avocado
- 1 rip banana
- 2-3 soaked dates
- 1 tsp of vanilla flavor
Other flavors:
- Add mint extract for a fresh and minty taste.
- Add a tablespoon of raw cacao powder for a richer chocolatey melt in your mouth taste.
- Add both flavors!
- Place all your ingredients in your high powered blender, I used my twister jar from Blendtec or a food processor would work.
- Blend until smoothie.
- Pour the mixture in a rectangular dish, and smooth out until even.
- Place in the freezer. Cut up into squares when hard and ready to eat.

This recipe has me thoroughly intrigued. I might need to make myself some since I am needing good sources of high fat foods without a bunch of sugar. My daughter nurses a lot and I am actually having trouble keeping up with her.
Thanks for linking up to Healthy 2Day Wednesday! Hope you link up another post on Wednesday. Look forward to seeing what you put up if you do.

Outbrain just brought me to this one

Perhaps raisins? Maybe experiment with raw honey?
