It’s rich, chocolaty, naturally sweetened, and your guests will never guess the secret healthier ingredient! Even better? It pipes beautifully, holds up well at room temperature, and comes together in just 5 minutes with 5 ingredients. Let us show you how it’s done! This EASY chocolate frosting requires just 5 simple ingredients: avocado, cocoa powder, maple syrup, vanilla, and sea salt. It’s important to use a perfectly ripe avocado to ensure its taste is hidden. You’re looking for one that’s just barely soft to the touch and bright green on the inside with no brown or stringy parts. Once you’ve found your perfect avocado (buy a few just in case!), add it to a food processor with the remaining ingredients and get blending. And if you get a bunch of winning avocados, make guacamole! Soon you’ll have a velvety smooth frosting with a pudding-like texture that somehow works really well on cupcakes and even pipes beautifully using a piping bag. Don’t ask, just trust! We hope you LOVE this chocolate avocado frosting! It’s:RichChocolatySmoothShinyNaturally sweetened& Seriously simple! It’s perfect for cakes, cupcakes, whoopie pies, brownies, or simply dipping fresh fruit (especially strawberries!).
