Ingredients
- 1 cup dark chocolate chips or 2 - 3.5 oz dark chocolate bars of your choice, chopped
- 1 small ripe to overripe avocado, mashed into a puree*
- 2 tablespoons coating of your choice (cocoa powder, shredded coconut, freeze dried strawberries, matcha powder, protein powder, sprinkles, gingerbread spice mix, cocoa nibs, finely chopped nuts, etc.)
Instructions
- Microwave chocolate for 30 second increments, stirring in between until melted. Alternatively, you can place a glass bowl with the chocolate over a pan of hot (not boiling) water to melt the chocolate.
- Add mashed avocado into melted chocolate and stir until fully incorporated. Freeze the mixture for 10 minutes. Once mixture has thickened into a rollable consistency, use a spoon to scoop out chocolate and roll into one inch balls.
- Place coating of your choice in a small bowl and roll truffles to coat. Store truffles in fridge for up to four days or freezer for up to one month.

Notes
*I typically just use a fork to mash the avocado, but you can also use a food processor to get that pureed consistency. Either way, be sure to buy ripe to overripe avocados to make sure they mash up well.
