Ingredients


Directions

Preheat oven according to cake mix directions.
With a food processor or blender, combine the cake mix, tofu, and 1/4 cup water.
Divide into two round pans, and bake according to the directions on the cake mix box.
(DO NOT add the oil/egg/whatever else the cake mix box says you need -- the tofu takes the place of all of those!)
Allow the cake to cool completely, then spread the Vanilla Bean-Avocado Custard between the cakes. Freeze for one hour.
Slice and serve, garnishing with chocolate sauce and--if you're brave--diced avocado tossed in maple syrup.

    Never in a million years thought my husband would eat this! IT IS DELICIOUS and went straight into out "Favorites" recipe file. Have shared it with 4 other people, and heard back from two - both who loved it and asked for the recipe! - 4/21/14

    This is really great. Make sure to tell people what's in it, several people we know are allergic to avocado. - 10/9/14

    Alizahh, just make your own cake from scratch rather than using the mix. I would never touch boxed cake mix either but I have plenty of good cake recipes and I bet you do too! - 4/21/15

    If you like Avocado Bubble tea (with tapioca, minus the tapioca),save the chocolate flavor in it - this cake is for you! So yummy and satisfying, tofu in it keeps you from having that sugar crash after cake that leaves you so friggin' hungry. BTW next day, avocado custard didn't turn brown.

    Try i

    This cake is light and fluffy. Very good. I tried it with the Avocado custard and it was ok. I would not choose that again though. I added mint extract to the custard and that helped. The cake however it easy and tasty! - 9/2/19

    I worry about the amount of sugar being consumed - while avocado adds a healthy aspect I would avoid the cake mix! - 8/12/19
