Avocado with Condensed Milk (Filipino Avocado Con Yelo)
This Avocado with Condensed Milk (avocado con yelo) is a classic Filipino dessert that combines creamy ripe avocado with sweet condensed milk and crushed ice. Ready in just 5 minutes!
Prepare the Avocados: Start by selecting the perfect ripe avocados. Cut them in half, remove the pit, and scoop the flesh into a mixing bowl. You want the avocados to be slightly mashed but still chunky enough to give the dessert some texture. The creamy avocado will blend perfectly with the condensed milk, creating a rich base for your dessert.
2 pieces Ripe Avocados
Combine Ingredients: Pour the sweetened condensed milk over the mashed avocados. Use a spoon or a fork to mix the two ingredients together until you achieve a smooth, creamy texture. Taste the mixture at this stage to adjust the sweetness if necessary—you can always add more condensed milk or a bit of sugar if you like it sweeter.
¼-½ cup Sweetened Condensed Milk
Chill and Serve: Add crushed ice to the avocado mixture and stir until everything is well combined. The ice will melt slightly, blending with the avocado and condensed milk to create a perfectly chilled treat. Serve immediately to enjoy the refreshing flavors and creamy texture.
2 cups Ice cubes
Notes
Perfectly ripe avocados are key. They should be soft but not mushy.
Avoid the dark green part of the avocado closest to the skin, as it can be bitter.
Adjust sweetness by adding more or less condensed milk to your preference.
For a shake, blend all ingredients until smooth instead of serving chunky.
Make it vegan with coconut condensed milk and coconut evaporated milk.
