Chocolate Avocado Brownies
In full disclosure, when I first saw the recipe for Avocado Chocolate Brownies I thought they were going to come out weird. I have never used avocado in a baking recipe so I had no idea what to expect. I was shocked at how incredibly tasty these guys came out. I'm sorry to use the "M" word but these cupcakes came out moist and perfect, way better than any cupcakes I have made in the past. Give them a try, you won't be disappointed!
