Ingredients

  • 1 ripe avocado
  • ½ cup plain full-fat Greek yogurt
  • ½ cup honey
  • ¼ cup melted semi-sweet chocolate
  • 1 large egg
  • 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
  • ½ cup unsweetened cocoa powder
  • ½ cup all-purpose flour
  • ½ teaspoon baking powder
  • ¼ teaspoon salt (sea salt or kosher)
  • 2 tablespoons melted butter, unsalted

Directions

  1. Preheat oven to 350F and spray an 8x8 pan (or similar) with nonstick cooking spray.
  2. Using a food processor, blend together the avocado and yogurt until completely smooth.
  3. Stir in honey, egg, vanilla extract, and melted chocolate.
  4. In a separate bowl, combine the cocoa powder, flour, baking powder, and salt.
  5. Add the dry mixture to the wet mixture and combine until smooth.
  6. Pour into the greased baking dish.
  7. Bake in preheated oven for 22-25 minutes.
  8. Allow to cool for 20 minutes until cool (don't skip this part as it helps it get fudgey; it gets even more fudgey as it's stored in the refrigerator overnight).
