Avocado Tea Cakes

Yummy!  What a  way to start my Monday morning.  Chef Azuki has created a new delicious tea cake with the small avocados that I have growing in my yard.  Despite the efforts of our neighborhood squirrels and our own (Blogger BeaN and Hubby BeaN) misadventures in the watering system of our hillside, we have a crop of small yet tasty and creamy avocados!  Our first harvest!  Now I've been bugging friends for guacamole recipes and putting avocados in all our sandwiches and salads. But only Chef Azuki would think of baking them into her tea cakes.  Chef Azuki, You Rock!
