If you love chocolate and avocados separately, try combining them for a delicious and creamy smoothie perfect for breakfast or a midday treat! This unexpected combo is my new favorite way to enjoy fresh ripe avocados and it’s super easy to make.

I usually make berry or green smoothies, but it’s fun to switch it up a little and try something different. Customize this recipe by using your favorite milk and/or yogurt to fit your dietary needs and taste. If you use unsweetened milk and yogurt, you may want to add honey or another sweetener.

    I love making these! My family made fun of me until they tried it! They love it too!

    • Tiffany

      Do you taste the avocado?

      • Suzyq

        I use avocado all the time in my smoothies. It doesn’t really have much taste at all, it just makes your smoothie super creamy. πŸ™‚

  2. MJ

    Looking forward to trying this one! Thanks.

  3. Agata

    if you do just avocado, cocoa powder, sweetner or sugar, and just enough water to get the blender going, it makes for a nice cake frosting, or pudding! πŸ˜‰

    • April

      Oh my gosh…thank you so much for the comment. We have lots of dietary issues but can do this for sure!

    Avocado has very little taste on it’s own. My dd has a dairy intolerance, so I use avocado a lot. It’s great in smoothies to replace yogurt. I’ve made pudding with it. Hubby and I now prefer it to cheese on things like tacos and chili.

    I am a dairy/gluten/nut intolerant vegetarian. I would love this as an alternative to my usual smoothies with coconut milk instead of almond. I would also recommend raw cacao powder instead of cocoa powder. It keeps the cancer-fighting anti-oxidants that are lost during processing into cocoa powder. It costs more, but I use the powder and nibs every day! Try Vitacost for a great organic source!

    You can freeze your avocados too. Remove the pit first. FYI if you cut them up the stick together.

    • Gina

      They…

    • Krishna

      Do they still turn color?

    What does this taste like? Pudding? Sounds tasty but just trying to get an idea.

    • Lina (Hip's Modern Martha)

      Ya it’s chocolatey, can’t taste the avocado and pudding texture.

      • ihearthip

        thanks!

  13. Lyndi Hedgecock

    Could you use regular yogurt instead of greek?

    • Lina (Hip's Modern Martha)

      Sure!

  14. Angela

    This is very famous smooties in my country. I’m from.Indonesia (South east Asia), but.we make it without.banana and yogurt. So just avacado with water / milk ,.you can put Ice cube also to.make it cold and put little bit chocolate powder if u want , put little bit of honey to make it sweet and at the end put just very little sea salt ( only.little bit). Also you can put little bit ice cream if u want.
