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)

Directions
- Preheat oven to 350F and spray an 8x8 pan (or similar) with nonstick cooking spray.
- Using a food processor, blend together the avocado and yogurt until completely smooth.
- Stir in honey, egg, vanilla extract, and melted chocolate.
- In a separate bowl, combine the cocoa powder, flour, baking powder, and salt.
- Add the dry mixture to the wet mixture and combine until smooth.
- Pour into the greased baking dish.
- Bake in preheated oven for 22-25 minutes.
- 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).
