Who could ever forget growing up watching Bill Cosby and the Jello Pudding Commercials? Instant pudding and pudding pops were built into the fabric of American culture and played a starring role as a quick and easy dessert at most of our dinner tables. Well, thank goodness times have changed.
Today, we have so many healthier options to choose from when it comes to making that creamy chocolatey delight – other than boxed pudding of course. This irresistible dessert is made with healthy raw ingredients and so scrumptious that you won’t even feel guilty if you happen to, accidentally, of course, enjoy a second or maybe even third helping of this delightful raw chocolate avocado pudding all in the same sitting.
