If you are familiar with our recipes, you know that we love chocolate avocado pudding. It is a wonderfully healthy and filling dessert or snack that provides lots of healthy fats, vitamins, minerals, antioxidants, and more. With this recipe, we’ve basically taken our beloved chocolate avocado pudding and transformed it into decadent truffles. Should you feel so inclined, you can elevate these truffles by rolling them in pulsed raw pistachios. Alternatively, you can dust the truffles with raw cacao powder or desiccated coconut flakes. 

Unlike other energy balls or truffles, you’ll have to place the blended mixture in the freezer prior to forming the mixture into balls. The reason for this is because the avocados make it very creamy. It becomes difficult to form truffles easily if the mixture is room temperature. Once you form the truffles, place them in the freezer or fridge to harden a little more. Enjoying them cold is the only way! 

Although these chocolate avocado truffles may not have the sugar content of a gingerbread house, they offer pleasant sweetness. The texture is very similar to chocolate ganache, making them very creamy and dreamy. That is why we recommended rolling them in pulsed pistachios if you enjoy a little texture. Make no mistake about it, though, these truffles are delicious as is and we hope you like them as much as we do.
