Dark Velvet Bliss
A rich, silky chocolate pudding made from avocado, banana, and cocoa, lifted with a splash of Baileys (or your favourite vegan liqueur). Quick to blend, naturally sweet, and wonderfully indulgent for a low-effort dessert.

Notes
Spoonie Notes:
- Dark Velvet Bliss takes only minutes to prepare, which makes it a perfect dessert for Spoonies.
- Be careful with alcohol if you’re using medications that might interact with it.
- Have some overripe bananas? They work really well and add extra sweetness to this indulgent dessert.
