Once, when we lived in California years ago, we went to the Avocado Festival in Carpinteria and had everything (I mean everything) with avocado in it–including ice cream. It’s wonderful and so healthy for you–not to mention what a beautiful color! Great recipe, XOXO
A while ago, I made an Avocado Ice Cream. I loved it, but the rest of my family was “meh”. They don’t know any better. I love avocados. I could eat 2-3 of them as guacamole, and call it a complete meal. These sound awesome.
Wow, I must try these! I’ve had avocado frosting, but I haven’t ventured any further into the world of avocado desserts.
Avocados are the BEST! must go to the dark side and eat avocado desserts! stealing this recipe idea!
These are so intriguing! I love avocado but have been too afraid to put them in desserts! These might be my baby steps…. Thanks 🙂
Oh, don’t be afraid! They taste so good, like citrus and sugar. 🙂 Enjoy!
Now this, I would never have thought of. It would be great if you would link this in to my Avocado edition of Food on Friday!
I linked in spicy mince lettuce cups to Live.Laugh. Rowe’s linky party. Have a great week.
Thanks Carole! I’ll come by!
I have an avo ice cream recipe on my site (no ice cream maker, just the Vita) and it’s one of my highest viewed recipes ever thanks to pinterest in large part 🙂 But if people only realized how good and creamy frozen avo is, they’d try it. I know you know this already!
Yes! I need to try ice cream. And everything else because it’s all soooo good! Thanks Averie!
holy cow! totally stealing this recipe:)
Enjoy it Heather! 🙂
I love that avocados are your siren song…and these popsicles! I’ve seen so many sweeter avocado recipes, and I definitely just need to eat a little less guacamole and make these!
I have a bowl full of avocados just waiting to be turned into something yummy…I think this is it! What a cool idea, I cannot wait to try it!
