Chocolate. Dark chocolate. Real, raw, rich chocolate. The kind so real, raw and rich that it’s sugar free. That’s what this Sugar Free Pure Chocolate Dessert is all about.
Here’s what they say….
Chocolate is like sex. It can go from a sacred experience all the way to a criminal act.
Victoria Moran told me this during an Institute for Integrative Nutrition lecture.
I started to think about all the ways chocolate is sacred and criminal. I came up with a hot list.
The chocolate recipe I’m about to give you today combines the very best ingredients with either no label or a very simple label.

- 2 small avocados
- ½ Tbsp Nutiva Organic Chia Seed
- ¼-1/2 tsp Monkfruit, depending on how sweet you want it
- 1 Tbsp Organic Raw Cacao Nibs
- 1 block Scharffen Berger Unsweetened Dark Chocolate Baking Bar 99% Cacao
- Place the avocado, Monkfruit, raw cacao nibs, and chia seeds in a bowl.
- Melt the Scharffen Berger in a pan on the stove (on low).
- Add the Scharffen Berger and avocado mix to a blender (preferably a Kitchen Aid).
- Blend on low for about 2-5 minutes, or until the mixture is smooth (it will have texture still, due to the chia seeds and raw cacao nibs - that's okay).
- Chill and eat.
This dessert is very rich. Ryan told me I needed to put that full disclosure here. IF you do not like real rich desserts and/or dark chocolate, then this is absolutely not for you. But like I told Ryan, most women would think he’s crazy for not liking it. Okay, maybe that’s just me.
That said, this Sugar Free Pure Chocolate Dessert….
- has no sugar,
- but is filled with fat and calories (all the goods!)
- you do not need a cup full to be satisfied -> I have 3-5 bites, and I’m a choco-holic
- the label of the avocado says: avocado, the label of the chia seeds say: chia seeds, the label of the raw cacao nibs say: raw cacao nibs and the label for the Scharffen Berger 99% cacao says: Cocoa Beans, whole vanilla beans
This is super simple and truly savory.
It’s neither sacred nor criminal.
It’s just life.
Do you like milk chocolate or dark chocolate better?

You will heal. I will help.
MMM, looks good! I have to try this. Marci left me a great recipe (salad) on my ‘site today, check it…
I will for sure! And yes, ps. Marci and I are always coming up with the delights we can still eat:) She will love this one.
Wow. Looks amazing! I would have never thought to put avocado and chocolate together.
So yummy!
I love this!!!! I’m doing a 21 day sugar detox and this might just qualify! I love that you use only the simplest ingredients! Plus it’s rich enough that you only need a little to truly enjoy it! Great recipe!
Yes, it would definitely qualify. Good luck during your 21 days. You’ll feel amazing!
This looks just wonderful… hope I can find that chocolate… I already know about the cacao nibs. Thanks!
Let me know how you like it!
