Chocolate Avocado Brownies

Please See Other Recipes

There are certain times in a woman’s life when all she wants is a big bite of something rich and chocolaty. You know the feeling. I have always been horrible at keeping track of my cycle, but I’m usually able to realize it’s on the way when I get that urge to find all the chocolate.

During that time of the month, I love indulging in a brownie (or three). What I’ve done though is make a better-for-you brownie using avocados. Avocados are a great way to get some healthy fat in without sacrificing that flavor we all crave. Plus, the magnesium from the avocados help with cramps!

INGREDIENTS

• 2 ripe avocados, mashed
• 8 oz semi-sweet chocolate, melted
• ½ cup light brown sugar
• ½ cup granulated sugar
• 2 eggs
• ¾ cup flour
• ¼ cup cocoa powder
• ½ tsp baking powder
• ¼ tsp salt

INSTRUCTIONS

1. Preheat oven to 350 F.
2. Line an 8x8 baking pan with parchment paper.
3. In a large bowl (or I used our food processor), mix avocados and melted chocolate until smooth and creamy.
4. Add in sugar and eggs. Mix until well combined.
5. In a separate bowl, combine flour, cocoa powder, baking powder, and salt.
