Tip: If you’re wanting to use coconut cream/milk buy a can of coconut cream. Place the can unopened in the refrigerator for 8 hours. Then remove the lid and pour the coconut milk in a separate bowl and the white formed product is the coconut cream. There you have it, two products in one.

In a blender or Vita Mix add avocado, heavy whipping cream, milk, sugar, pure vanilla extract and blend until mixture is smooth.
Turn blender off and add organic cacao powder and ice cubes. Again, blend until mixture is creamy and smooth.

Pour mixture into your favorite parfait glass and eat it with a spoon or put in a not-so-fancy but practical flute jar or Ball Contoured Jar with sipping straw.
