Freeze this rich pudding and it becomes ice cream or spread it between layers of fudgy cake for a fun take on frosting.


Ingredients:
1 vanilla bean
1 avocado, pit removed, peel discarded and flesh chopped
1 t vanilla extract
2 T maple syrup
1/2 t lemon juice

Tips:
Store the leftover vanilla bean pod in a container of sugar for vanilla flavored sugar. Or add it to a jar of vodka or rum for homemade extract.

Avocado doesn't store well. Use as soon as possible to avoid unsightly but harmless oxidation (browning).

Directions:
Use the tip of a paring knife to slice through the vanilla bean from tip to end. Use a spoon to scrape the seeds from the pod.

Add to a small blender along with the remaining ingredients.

If not using immediately, transfer to a small bowl press plastic wrap onto the top of the custard. Refrigerate up to 8 hours or freeze up to overnight.
