Directions:

In a food processor, blend avocado and microgreens until completely smooth - fair warning, it may take a few minutes and require a strong blender!

Add in milk and vanilla extract, and slowly, while mixing, add in cocoa powder. Blend until smooth and a dark, chocolatey color. If the mixture doesn’t look like chocolate, add more cocoa powder.

Add in peanut butter, maple syrup, and pitted dates. Blend again until completely smooth.

Taste - add more cocoa, peanut butter, and/or sweetener if desired.

Top with whipped cream, peanut butter, and cocoa and enjoy!
