Chocomole - A Sinful Chocolate Pudding that's Actually Good for You!


A dessert as sinful as Chocolate Pudding and still good for you??? Is it too good to be true???

Well, not at all!!

Its the best thing that I have ever tasted so far, that I couldn't help sharing with you all.

Presenting "The Choco-mole" - A Chocolate Avocado Pudding!




First you have the creamy, buttery Avocado, which is a powerhouse of nutrients. Avocado is high in monounsaturated fats, which are generally considered among the healthiest of fats. Researchers have found that a diet high in monounsaturated fats and low in low-quality carbs may improve insulin sensitivity. Monounsaturated fats also improve heart health—an especially important benefit for diabetics, who are at increased risk for heart disease and stroke.


Then there is the lushous Dark Belgian chocolate, packed with antioxidants to delay the ageing process and to prevent you from certain cancers. Did you know, Dark chocolate helps keep your blood vessels healthy and your circulation unimpaired to protect against type 2 diabetes. The flavonoids in dark chocolate also help reduce insulin resistance by helping your cells to function normally and regain the ability to use your body's insulin efficiently. Dark chocolate also has a low glycemic index, meaning it won't cause huge spikes in blood sugar levels.


And this is perhaps the easiest and quickest dessert anybody had ever made. Dump all the ingredients in a blender/ processor and mix until well blended and its done! Chill for an hour or two before gobbling it all up.


This is the second time I mad this pudding and needless to say its a hit. You can never taste the avocado in there. Its smooth, lushous and decadent. Just the way a sinful pudding is supposed to taste.
