After reading "OMG MAKE THIS NOW" being posted mere days after reading "that sounds weird or disgusting", I was immediately intrigued. I love a good exotic food idea.
So, I tried three different incarnations of it. After all, I had ... oh ..... ten different avocados, and I want an avocado plant forest! But more on that later.
Ingredients 1:
1 (9 inch) prepared graham cracker crust
2 avocados - peeled, pitted and pureed
1/2 cup lemon juice
1 (5 ounce) can sweetened condensed milk
Recipe 1:
1. Get your crust ready.
2. Put everything else into a blender.
3. Dump everything into graham pie shell crust
4. Freeze it. For at least 3 hours.
Reaction: 90%. The lemon in the recipe made it taste like a key lime pie. Which is nice, but if I wanted that, I would have just made that instead.
Ingredients 2:
1 (9 inch) prepared graham cracker crust
2 avocados - peeled, pitted and pureed
1 (5 ounce) can sweetened condensed milk
15 extremely fresh cherries. They should literally be this (link) color. Rainier cherries would be even better.
Recipe 2:
1. Get your crust ready.
2. Put everything else into a blender.
3. Dump everything into graham pie shell crust
4. Freeze it. For at least 3 hours.
Reaction: 75%. The only think that made this worth my time was the large number of cherries I put into it. Perhaps if I put in a lot more, it would be a lot better, but as I made it the taste of sweetened condensed milk was ridiculously overpowering.
Ingredients 3:
1 (9 inch) prepared NORMAL pie crust
2 avocados - peeled, pitted and pureed
3/2 cup milk
4/5 block package of cream cheese. I used low fat. Perhaps you should too......
1/4 teaspoon vanilla
Recipe 3:
1. Get your crust ready. I bake it for about 5 minutes.
2. Put everything else into a blender.
3. Dump everything into graham pie shell crust
4. Freeze it. For at least 12 hours.
Reaction: 99%. I just discovered a culinarily pure dessert form of Avocado. To bad it's a giant circular icicle, and unfit for pie form. Avocado Popsicles, here we come! In the future, however, I shall reduce the amount of milk to reduce ice crystallization in my precious pie.
Notes: Get ready to gain weight. Do NOT give yourself multiple portions.
