Healthy Avocado Chocolate Cookies

Anyone wondering – strange as it seems, you can’t taste the avocado at all, it just adds a really nice texture. Also, the coconut sugar doesn’t actually taste like coconut, it’s really sweet and if anything it has a slight caramel flavor to it. I have made these 2 times and they are delicious! I keep mine in the freezer.  Absolutely awesome cookies! Ingredients 100 g. (3/4 cup) avocado flesh (very ripe, but not brown) ½ cup (120mL) coconut sugar (*SEE NOTES) 1 egg (FOR VEGAN VERSION SEE BELOW) ½ cup (120mL) dark cocoa powder 50 g. dark chocolate chunks (I used 85% cocoa) ½ tsp. baking soda To see directions and complete recipes visit Healthy Avocado Chocolate Cookies @ thesmoothielover.com
