I happen to live in a neighborhood of chic and inventive restaurants. Lucky me! One of my favorites is Mexique, a wonderful little Mexican-French restaurant with a great staff and fun, original food (get the duck for dinner or the huaraches de camarones for brunch). I have finally cracked the code though, of their unique dessert guacamole. It is surprisingly simple and I thought it would take several tries. I have four avocados left. Come by, and I bet you can convince me to make another batch!
Surprise all your friends -

Ummm I have been looking for EVER for a way to incorporate the unsaturated fat and creamy texture of avocados into a dessert! Thanks so much!
ReplyDeleteDo it. Soak your extra strawberries in cointreau and you'll be in heaven.
