No Bake Chocolate Avocado Pie

While out here on the Chesapeake Bay, my focus is on delicious no fuss food so we can maximize our time on the beach. This also means that I may not always have time to catch the perfect photo but  promise the flavor will not waiver. 

Living in a bathing suit all summer inspires me to find SOME meals that are on the lighter side. This quick and easy No Bake Chocolate Avocado Pie recipe did not disappoint. It took less than 10 minutes to make with the help of a Keebler Chocolate Ready Crust and Reddi Wip whipped cream.

Here came the true test. What would my very picky eater Morgan think? He didn't feel like posing for the picture, but his plate says it all!

No kidding, when I looked over and saw him scarfing down the pie I ducked behind the breakfast bar and did a little dance. Score! 

No Bake Chocolate Avocado Pie

Ingredients

3 large ripened avocados

3/4 cup 100% maple syrup or agave 

1/4 cup high-quality unsweetened cocoa powder (I use Ghiradelli)

2 tsp. pure vanilla extract

1/4 tsp. salt 

Optional toppings: whipped cream and fresh berries. 

Directions:

• Place ingredients in a food processor, cover, and process until smooth. 
• Pour mixture into the pre-made ready crust, cover, and refrigerate for at least 3 hours.

Note: If you are looking for a dairy-free whipped cream option, check out this Coconut Whipped Cream via The Kitchn. Just a heads up, for optimal whipped cream consistency you will need to chill a can of coconut milk overnight in the fridge before making it.
