Yum! In Brazil, no one associates avocados with salad or guacamole. There, avocado is a fruit! You can make this thick to eat by the spoonful: peel and cut one large,ripe avocado in chunks, and throw it it the blender. Gradually add sweet condensed milk while you blend the avocado, until desired consistency. You will use approximately 1/2 can of sweet condensed milk to one large avocado. Optional: add a few drops of vanilla extract to the cream. Both the avocado and the sweet condensed milk should be chilled. Serve immediately as a yummy dessert. Serves 4. Oh, and I forgot to say, this version is called Creme de Abacate (Avocado Cream). It is sinfully delicious.

I thought 3 TB sugar was too much for 1/2 avocado so I used a whole one and increased the milk a little bit. Following a Brazilian friend's suggestion I tried adding powdered milk to it and it was delish.

I made this and no one wanted to try it, but once they had, they loved it. A few said it was a little sweet, but I think that's a preference thing.
