vegan chocolate avocado icingIf you would have told me 4 months ago how much I would love this vegan, sugar free, chocolate-avocado frosting … I would have laughed right in your face.

Who the hell makes chocolate icing with avocado?!

Well, I do!

Even my dear husband likes it and that says a lot! I can’t wait to make another gluten free chocolate cake to share either. The cake recipe is super simple and easy to make. Bonus? This frosting makes it chocolate heaven. 😁

It’s been tough giving up sugar (among other things) but I’m 30lbs down and counting! Woooohooo!

I hope you enjoy this recipe. Be sure to tag me when you make and share your frosting. I’d love to know how you enjoyed it.
