This recipe was inspired by a classic chocolate pudding recipe that I found in an old cookbook. I wanted to create a healthier version of the recipe, so I substituted avocado for the butter and milk. I also reduced the amount of sugar in the recipe and used unsweetened cocoa powder instead of sweetened cocoa powder. The result is a creamy, decadent, and healthy chocolate pudding that is perfect for any occasion.
