Where I live, we also use avocados for desserts. Make then into ice cream, shakes, or just served cold with milk and sugar (mashed or sliced). A lot of you may find this tasting funny, but it's popular over here.

I've made avocado gelato and it's really good especially if you serve it with a chocolate mole cake.

Franklly speaking I don't like avocados but this recipe inspired me to cook something with this fruit!

I like avocados straight out of the skin or sliced and eaten on sandwiches or in salads or on a cold plate with boiled egg slices, sweet pickles, pickled okra and believe it or not, with sardines. mmmmmmmm
