Chocolate Avocado Frosting
This Chocolate Avocado Frosting is so easy, decadent and rich! It’s naturally vegan, gluten free and healthier than typical frosting!
I love avocados and I love chocolate, so I think this frosting is delish! You won’t believe how rich and amazingly good it is until you make it yourself.
Avocados have so many benefits, for instance, they are a great source of vitamins C, E, K, and B-6. Avocados also contain riboflavin, niacin, folate, pantothenic acid, magnesium, and potassium.
People ask me if they will get fat eating avocados and the answer is no. Eating healthy fats keep us satiated and help to cut our cravings. Obviously, we aren’t going to eat 3 a day, but I doubt that anyone ever got fat eating avocados. Chips on the other hand…
Avocados also support skin health, enhance the absorption of fat-soluble vitamins, minerals, and other nutrients, and may even help boost the immune system. So enjoy! If you want to learn more about the health benefits of avocados CLICK HERE.

You can cut the calories further by omitting the liquid sweetener and only using stevia. If so, you might need to add a little almond milk to get a smooth consistency.
