Avocado Chocolate Truffles

Avocado Chocolate Truffles

FODMAP Friendly, GF, DF, Ve

Ingredients

  • 2 large Avocado, ripe
  • 100 g Cacao, solid, I love Willies Cacao Madagascan Black
  • 2 tbsp Cacao powder
  • 2 tsp Vanilla Bean Paste
  • 4 tbsp Almond Milk
  • 4 tbsp Maple Syrup
  • 28 g Coconut Oil, Melted

Instructions

  1. Melt the chocolate in a heat proof bowl over a pan of simmering water - make sure the water doesn’t touch the bowl.
  2. Stir the chocolate, cacao, vanilla bean paste, almond milk, maple syrup and coconut oil together - add flavour to your truffles at this stage, eg. for orange truffles add 2 tsp orange essence, for coffee truffles add 2 tsp fresh cold espresso and for chilli truffles substitute 5g of coconut oil for chilli oil.
  3. Blend the chocolate mix with the avocado flesh.
  4. Chill in a bowl to set overnight (3 hours minimum)
  5. Roll truffles using two teaspoons and the palm of your hands (be quick, they will melt!).
  6. Roll in a bowl of your chosen topping - add chopped or ground hazelnuts for orange truffles, ground cacao nibs for vanilla and coffee truffles and cacao powder for chilli truffles.
  7. Truffles will last for five days in the fridge, if they last that long 🤗
