Ingredients

• 6 cups confectioners' sugar
• 2 avocados, peeled and pitted
• 2 cups unsweetened cocoa powder
• 0.5 cup butter, melted
• 1.5 cups semisweet chocolate chips
• 0.5 cup white chocolate chips
• 0.5 cup Irish cream liqueur

Recipe Instructions

Step 1

Place the avocados and melted butter in a mixing bowl. Blend with an immersion blender until the mixture is smooth and creamy. Scrape the mixture into a saucepan and stir over low heat.

Step 2

Melt the semi-sweet chocolate and white chocolate in a microwave-safe glass or ceramic bowl in 30-second intervals, stirring after each melting, for 1 to 3 minutes (depending on your microwave). Do not overheat or chocolate will scorch. Pour the melted chocolate into the sauce pan and mix thoroughly. Remove from the heat.

Step 3

Line a 9X11-inch pan with wax paper or foil sprayed with cooking spray. Pour the fudge mixture into the prepared pan. Chill in the refrigerator for at least 1 hour.

Step 4

Pour in the Irish cream and stir. Add the cocoa powder and stir until completely incorporated. Stir in the confectioners' sugar 1 cup at a time, making sure the sugar is completely incorporated and the mixture is smooth before adding the next cup.
