  1. Scoop the flesh from 2 ripe avocados into a food processor.
  2. Pulse the avocados a few times until a creamy, smooth consistency is achieved.
  3. Add ¾ cup maple syrup, 2 teaspoons pure vanilla extract, and ½ teaspoon flaky sea salt to the food processor.

Notes

- For the silkiest texture, ensure your avocados are very ripe; they should yield easily to gentle pressure. If the pudding isn't perfectly smooth after blending, continue processing for another minute or two, scraping down the sides.
- Taste and adjust the sweetness: some prefer a less sweet chocolate avocado pudding, so start with ¾ cup maple syrup and add more if desired.
- Store any leftover chocolate avocado pudding in an airtight container in the refrigerator for up to 3 days. The surface might darken slightly due to oxidation, but it will still be delicious.
