Fudgy Mocha Chocolate Chip Avocado Brownies
So did I ever tell you about that one time I ate a whole batch of brownies by myself … in one sitting?
Well if you’ve read my About page then you probably know the story.. but if you haven’t let me tell you!
Twas the day before I got married. The bridesmaids and I were busy making last minute projects before the big day – making table signs and finishing the wedding programs. Suddenly I had the urge for a chocolate treat … my treat of choice was and will always be brownies. I made a quick batch and dove in.
Apparently I was really nervous because 10 minutes later I realized I had finished the WHOLE batch (8×8 pan) of brownies by myself
Luckily my dress still fit the next day! hehe The End.
But clearly you can see and understand after that story, my passion and lack of self control for brownies!
Which is why I needed to make a healthier version – a guilt free version if you will!
Enter these Mocha Chocolate Chip Avocado Brownies!
These babies are made with fresh avocado, coffee, loads of chocolate chips, and dark dutch processed cocoa powder. (that stuff is the best! Please make sure its dutch processed, way better than regular Hersey’s cocoa powder – no offensive)
When you are mixing it the texture is definitely a little more sticky than regular box brownie mix, meaning its not as smooth pouring out of the bowl into the baking dish. You will need to use your spatula to scrap it out of the bowl and evenly spread the batter. But believe me.. its so worth it!
You’ll never know that these brownies are made with avocado when you taste them! They are still as rich and fudgy as regular brownies.
In fact, I dropped a bunch of these off at my husbands office and they were gone in minutes. It was only later that I told them that they were Avocado Brownies! hehe (so sneaky)
The coffee brings out the chocolate taste even more… and the chocolate chips … well… lets just say I like chocolate and couldn’t resist adding a little more!
If you haven’t tried Avocado Brownies yet do it, you will be shocked at how good they are! These would totally be a great dessert to bring to your next summer party … or just something to snack on at night if you’re like me. Bon Appetite!

haha… hurray!
I am OBSESSED with making brownies from avocados…it makes them SOOO fudgey and delicious.
But then you added coffee…so I can basically have 2 of these instead of my morning cup of joe right? 😉 Pinned!
Exactly! Great logic! Thanks for the pin girl!
I would never think to put avocado in a brownie…they look so delicious in your photos, I would probably eat the whole pan like you did!
Its such a fun sneaky trick that you wouldn’t normally think of but its delicious!
YUM!!! I absolutely LOVE anything avocado and especially a good brownie! Pinned.
Thanks girl! Avocado Brownies rock! 🙂
Can I sub regular sugar for coconut sugar?
★★★★★
sure can, I would just use less Karen.
[…] did you happen to see my post from Wednesday! Mocha Chocolate Chip Avocado Brownies… case and point. Me and chocolate have a love hate […]
I can just imagine how rich and chocolaty these brownies are. Delicious!
you have no idea! So good!
Yep these sure are some fudgy brownies! Don’t worry, I’ve eaten a whole batch of brownies once, or twice in my lifetime and it probably won’t be the last. Really like that you used whole wheat flour though. Gotta get that fiber in – makes you feel fuller, quicker 🙂
haha.. love it! There is just something about brownies.. I can’t stop at just one! 🙂
So I’ve had chocolate pudding using avocado, but I haven’t tried brownies, definitely on my list to try! They look so fudgy and I love the coffee in them! P.S. I’ve been known to eat a whole pan of dessert myself. 😉
glad I’m not the only one… makes me feel less guilty! 🙂
I haven’t tried avocado in my pudding yet, sounds like we need to swap. You make the brownies, I’ll make the pudding! Ready.. go!
Oh my goodness! These look and sound amazing! I can totally feel your eat-the-whole-batch pain – I’m such a chocolate lover!
glad someone else can relate… i have no self control when it comes to chocolate!
These looks so glossy and fudgey and all things amazing Krista!! Love that it has avocado, I so need to try that. I love that story about your wedding, that is so hilarious!!
Thanks Karen! You will love it with the avocado, it totally makes the brownies super fudgy! Glad you enjoyed the wedding story.. hehe 🙂
That story is hilarious! I have definitely had those “I need chocolate pronto!” moments myself, and since they happen more often than I care to admit, lol, this guilt-free version is perfect!
haha.. right! I need to get my chocolate “moments” under wraps asap!
What a unique combination…these look so delicious!
Thanks Megan! Its amazing, the perfect healthy chocolate treat!
I may have had one (or two) of those no self control nights. For me it’s usually a dip or an appetizer that lure me into eating the whole thing! I would savor these brownies and eat them slowly so I could enjoy each fudgy bite.
ohh… dips or apps will so do the same thing for me.
Sheeshh.. sounds like I have a food problem! 🙂 hehe
It/s funny the things we do when we are nervous! I have never had avocado brownies before! looks great!
right!! i guess inhaling chocolate brownies is what I do! 🙂
Holy cow, Krista. These are GORGEOUS! I want to try this recipe for sure.
OH.. thanks Andi! You will love them! 🙂
These look so delicious! I must try them!
They so are! Enjoy!
I absolutely must try these soon, Krista! I’ve made my own avocado brownies from a mix a few times before, but never from scratch. Don’t think coconut sugar is available here but I can do a quick sub, no problem. Can’t wait to try them. (And I don’t blame you for the pre-wedding brownie-a-thon.) I’d have totally done the same thing 🙂
You’ll love them from scratch! Plus then you know exactly whats in them! 🙂 Yeah, you could easily sub with regular sugar, honey, or agave no problem!
This is just how I like my brownies – rich, fudgy and dense. I love that they are healthy too and this recipe is one I will be trying!
Fudgy brownies are the best! The avocado in this totally takes you by surprise, its so delicious! Hope you like it!
