Your favorite (tried and tested!) dessert recipe? page

[reallygravity]

I am determined to start making our own Paleo desserts when we want to indulge, rather than end up buying stuff from outside.

Whats your favorite recipe that you have used, and people (non-Paleo especially!) have loved the outcome?

Thanks!

Use a blender to mix. Refrigerate.

@Goldie - can you taste the avocado in this? My hubby doesn't like the taste and texture of avocados, even though I don't think they actually "taste" like anything, but I would love to be able to make a sweet treat without using SAD ingredients...

1/2 cup unsweetened cocoa powder
4 T vanilla
2 T heavy cream (optional)
1/3 cup maple syrup

Use a blender to mix. Refrigerate.

I make this for my family without the maple syrup, but I add a banana or 2 instead.
They love it, and it doesn't taste like avocado.

No way! I would have bet money yours was chocolate!
