Double Chocolate Avocado Cookies
I gotta admit, this was not my idea, but when a friend sent me photos of her version of these, I figured I had to give it a go. I always try to keep sweeteners to a minimum, so this only uses 1/4 cup of maple syrup for the whole baker’s dozen.
Avocado may be trendy but the real reason this superstar deserves its name in lights is for all of the healthy fats it packs! When you need to add a rich, creamy texture to your recipe, avocado is the way to go. They also contain more potassium than bananas making them (and this recipe) a perfect way to replenish after electrolyte-depleting workouts. Keep those muscle cramps away with cookies! (Too much?)
