Alright; I'd give this one 3 stars out of 5. All in all, too much vanilla, not enough avocado, and some weird texture differences. Next time, I'm definitely blending the avocados, and just making an avocado-pudding pie. But anyway, it was pretty successful, I think, and here it is!
1/2 C sifted flour or 3/4 C cornstarch
2/3 C sugar
1/4 tsp. salt
2 C milk, scalded
3 slightly beaten egg yolks
2 Tbsp. butter
1/2 tsp. vanilla
1 baked 9-inch pastry shell
3 ripe avocados
Mix flour, sugar, and salt; gradually add milk. Cook over moderate heat, stirring constantly, until mixture thickens and boils. Cook 2 minutes; remove from heat.
Add small amount to egg yolks; stir into remaining hot mixture; cook 1 minute, stirring constantly. Add butter, vanilla; cool slightly.
Slice 3 avocados and place around base of pastry shell. Pour pudding over top into baked pastry shell. Cool. Consume voraciously.
