Sweet treats somehow manage to be both friend and frenemy alike. When you're having a bad day, there's nothing like a pick-me-up cupcake. And when you're having a good day, there's nothing like a well-deserved cupcake.

Ugh, food can be so unfair. But before we go down this road of eating less sugar and retooling your diet to feature nothing by flaxseed and cardboard – there's a way to satisfy your sweet tooth without sacrificing the flavor you crave. Spoiler alert: it's the title of this recipe.

Avocado and chia seeds give this decadent, delicate dessert a sneaky heart-healthy boost. And the best part, your kids will love it without knowing they are eating healthy!

Ingredients:

• 2 very ripe avocados, peeled and pitted
• 1/2 cup unsweetened almond milk
• 1/4 cup unsweetened cocoa powder
• 1/4 cup plain, non-fat Greek yogurt
• 1 tsp vanilla extract
• 2 tbsp chia seeds

Directions:

• In a blender or food processor, mix all ingredients until smooth and creamy.
• Transfer your mixture to individual serving dishes. Cover and refrigerate overnight to allow your pudding to thicken.
• The next day, serve with optional raspberries, chopped almonds or walnuts on top.
