Raw chocolate avocado tart recipe
There’s no doubt about it, this tart looks devilishly delicious. But while the delicious part is absolutely correct, it’s actually not that devilish - this one’s as healthy as a dessert comes.
Made by nutritionist Jacqueline Alwill, the star ingredient of this tart is none other than the nutrient-rich avocado. Packed full of essential fatty acids, avocado can help to soften and rejuvenate the skin, as well as improving the uptake of essential nutrients in the body.
Take a look at the video above to see how to create this chocolatey delight, or follow the step-by-step below. And for more great recipes, tips and advice from Jacqueline herself, head to the Jurlique blog.

I could actually eat this! Just a little though because I can't eat to much sat fats like from the avo because I'm on the Overcoming MS (OMS) diet.
Avocadoes are so yummy, salads are just divine with them
I don't like tarts, but the ingredients can be manipulated into a mousse, taste pretty good too
I'm not overfussed with avocado but this looks fabulous.
I definitely will be trying this recipe! Looks scrumptious.
A fabulous Raw chocolate avocado tart recipe. I would love to make this and I bet it would taste delicious!
I love avocado and chocolate! Now I dint have to choose between them, heaven!
What a shame the price of avocadoes is so high right now :( I'm trying to sprout some avocado seeds, and two of them are looking pretty good, but then I have to figure out where to plant them.
But first I need to print this recipe out. It looks awesome!
How scrumptious does the Chocolate Avocado Tart look, I am licking my lips.
Wow im a huge fan of avocados and chocolate i def have to try this
This looks absolutely amazing! I definitely want to try out this recipe as soon as possible, thanks for posting. :)
Made my version: crust coconut butter (homemade), dates and buckwheat groats (sprouted dehydrated) for crust. On the top the choco mousse similar, but instead of processed syrup i added date paste and banana to sweeten. Dusted with homemade shredded dried coconut and freeze dried berries
Avocado is great and what a shame it goes black easily if you don't give it some lemon/lime juice once cut. Avocado , chicken, mayonnaise sandwich .. yum
Yum yum yummy!!!I'm so going to make this.i love avocado and chocolate so together is match made in heaven
Never ever ever would have thought of this combo. How interesting!
Oh man, I can imagine the taste of this... The rich creaminess of the avocado and chocolatey cocoa.
Ooh yes I love avocados. I make a chocolate smoothie with them. As for desserts, I made a chocolate mousse once but it had banana in it and that was the only ingredient we could taste :(
