Everyone we know enjoys something sweet now and again, but what if we told you that you can make something sweet with raw ingrediants, that will give you your fix plus added bonus of nutritional value? 

Well here it is... The Omazing Raw Chocolate pudding rcipie that will leave you feeling satisfied and guilt free.

Ingredients:
4     Avocados 
15   Whole Dates 
1/2  cup of raw honey
2      tbsp (or more if you desire) of cacao or cocoa powder
1-2  tbsp maca powder (optional but adds more goodness to your health)
1-2  tbsp of vanilla
1     tsp cinnamon powder
1/2  tsp sea salt

Directions:

1. Pit dates. Throw away pits. Put dates a bowl and cover all of them with water. Soak dates for 15 min. 
   
2. Once soaked, put dates in a blender. KEEP and set aside the water you soaked them in.
   
3. Cut avocados in half. Remove pits, scoop out the "green goodness". 
   
4. Place avocados, raw honey, maca, vanilla, cinnamon and sea salt to the blender.
   
5. Begin to slowly pulse the blender. As the ingredients become blend, add tiny amounts of "date water" as needed to fully blend to a smooth and thick paste.
6. Once smooth, do a taste test and see if you would like to add anything more, such as more honey for sweetness, cocoa for more chocolate. Blend again if you add more of anything.
7. Remove from blender. Chill pudding in a large container or in serving bowls for a few hours. 
8. Lick your spoon and scrape the blender clean of residual pudding. :)
9. Serve with your choice of fresh fruit (our favourite is strawberries and shredded unsweetened coconut.)
10. Enjoy thoroughly with a smile. Knowing that you are getting a sweet treat that is very very very good for you!
