Happy Food Trip Friday and Happy Cinco de Mayo!
I love avocado…it’s my most favorite fruit of all, not only because of its healthy benefits, but because of how tasty and delicious it is too. More often than not, I prepare an avocado smoothie or avocado smoothie bowl for breakfast or sometimes, I just eat it with sugar and milk. I also have this favorite side dish, avocado and tomato salad that is best for either our lunch or dinner. You should try that side dish, it’s really delish!
In celebration of Cinco de Mayo today, I decided to round up some must-try avocado desserts. I’ve had avocado ice cream in my Philippines’ hometown before and it was to die for. But I’ve never tried preparing avocado ice cream on my own. I’ve never thought it was so easy to prepare until I saw this avocado ice cream recipe online. I have also never thought of adding avocado to the desserts that I’ve created in the past. How come I’ve never thought of it? 🙂 I have a sweet tooth and no meal is complete without a dessert so these avocado dessert recipes are a definite must-try in my book.
I’m so thankful for these avocado dessert ideas that I’ve seen. And I can hardly wait to try them one-by-one. What also excites me is the fact that my son won’t know that there is avocado in these cookies and brownies. Unfortunately, he can be very picky and he doesn’t like avocado like me. Now I can trick him to eating avocado without him knowing. Win win, right? 🙂
- Avocado Ice Cream
- Healthy Avocado Chocolate Cookies
- Coconut & Avocado Grasshopper Bars
- Black Bean Avocado Chocolate Chip Fudge Brownies
- Avocado Frosting
I know for sure they are as delicious as they look. I bet you’ll agree with me.
Do you love avocado too? Have you tried any avocado dessert recipes?

I had a chance to try avocado ice cream when my friend had me try it. It was delicious! I hope I can find a tub of it in the grocery store some time. If not, I will try making it myself. Thank you for the recipe round up!

I too love avocado but I’ve never had it in dessert form. I’m super curious right now. I’m trying to imagine how it taste as an ice cream.
