Easy and Healthy Avocado Chocolate Truffles

Who would’ve thought Avocado could be used in dessert, right? Well, we here at Avolands think this is probably one of our favourite things to make with avo. A healthy chocolate treat perfect for satisfying those with a sweet tooth.

Ingredients:

1 avocado skin and pit removed
60g dark chocolate
1 tablespoon honey
¼ cup cocoa powder

Method:
  • Melt the dark chocolate in a microwave for 30 seconds at a time, stirring in between each microwave session, until melted (I needed about two minutes total).
  • Puree the Hass avocado in a mini food chopper for 1-2 minutes, or until a smooth mixture forms.
  • Add melted chocolate and honey, return the lid to the food chopper, and puree another minute, or until smooth and evenly combined.
  • Transfer mixture to a freezer-safe bowl with lid and freeze for 30 minutes, or until firm enough to roll into balls.
  • Place cocoa powder in a bowl or container to coat the truffles with.
  • Roll the truffles by taking one tablespoon of truffle mixture, rolling it into a ball with the palms of your hand.
  • Place the truffles into the cocoa powder and turn until evenly dusted with cocoa powder.
  • Put in an enclosed container and refrigerate until serving. Refrigerate any leftovers up to one week.
