Chocolate is my passion.

Avocado is my obsession.

So I decided to put them together with some tasty peanut butter to get your chocolate fix, in a healthier way!

Every time the new year rolls around, I strive to revisit my habits and make small adjustments to get a little healthier. Of course, I say that, but I can’t give up on my chocolate… 

Brownies are one of those treats I rarely make at home. Usually it’s because the chocolate is wayyyy too addictive and I will shovel those things in my mouth two at a time.

Before you know it they are gone and I’m making more to satisfy my addiction.

So I try to avoid making them like the plague.

Until now, that is.

These little brownie bites are healthier because they have high-protein avocado instead of butter. They are also in bite-size form so that you don’t have to be concerned with eating a giant brownie! You can instead have a couple of these little guys, and you won’t be devouring too many calories.

You may be a little hesitant to try avocado in baking, but I swear, the flavor is not overpowering and you really wouldn’t even know it’s in there!

It makes these brownie bites super dense and moist (*shudders* I still hate that word…), and the double dose of chocolate with peanut butter gives them the best, rich flavor.

So grab a glass of your favorite milk and saddle up to the yumminess!
