Amazing! Wildly original and delicious. I would never have thought to cook with avocadoes, much less with chocolate. Loved these. I did use grapeseed oil and reduced the coconut flakes a bit, personal taste. Great recipe. Thank you.

Thank you for these. My son is trying to get me over to almond and hemp milk. I may try these with my gluten free flour because I have lots now. Do you find the olive oil heavy for this? I would wonder if grapeseed oil would work? I pledge to head to a healthier direction right after plum week.
