Why is avocado used in this chocolate pudding recipe?

Ripe Haas avocado provides the essential creamy texture and healthy fats, eliminating the need for dairy while contributing a neutral base for the chocolate flavor.

Do I have to soak the Medjool dates before blending?

Yes, soaking the Medjool dates for about an hour softens them, ensuring they blend completely smooth into the pudding without any gritty pieces.

Can I make this chocolate pudding entirely raw?

To keep this pudding raw, ensure all ingredients are raw, and substitute the pure vanilla extract with fresh vanilla bean scraped from the pod.

How should I store leftover 4-ingredient chocolate pudding?

Store any leftover pudding in an airtight container in the refrigerator for up to 3-4 days to maintain its freshness and creamy texture.

What if my pudding is too thick after blending?

If your pudding is too thick, add 2-3 tablespoons of fresh water, one at a time, and blend again until you achieve your desired smooth, pudding consistency.
