Chocolate Avocado Truffles
Chocolate avocado truffles are amazing! The creamiest, melt in your mouth texture and the avocado adds good fats. You need to try these!
I made these amazing vegan chocolate truffles a few days ago, and it’s fair to say they are so delicious and addictive I’ve nearly eaten them all… I actually had to take some to my mums for her to eat or I would have scoffed the lot!
I thought I’d better post these amazing chocolate truffles ASAP before everyone’s new year health kick starts. Have you over indulged?
I’ve definitely enjoyed lot’s of delicious food, but you know what I really believe in balance, and yes I know it’s easy to say but for me eating healthily and moderately most of the time (even Christmas) means that I don’t have to go crazy with a health regime in January. Plus, I’m now in a place where I feel happy having a few healthy treats occasionally, so chocolate truffles it is!
And, of course, there are no bad ingredients in my deliciously addictive little chocolate truffles. Guess what makes them all gooey and creamy?
It’s actually avocado. Which is then combined with some great quality vegan chocolate (I used Raiz the bar), raw organic cacao, organic coconut oil and some coconut honey… what’s not to love?
The taste of these truffles is out of this world–so densely rich because of the raw cacao and dark and intense chocolate. You’ve got to try these!

These were amazing and real eye candy too! Easy to make and just that festive touch we needed to finish a birthday party. They’re definitely a keeper for good times to come. Next time I might add some orange essence and cover them in orange zest or a combo of rose essence and dried rose leaves or lavender. Your recipes always add up, that’s why I keep coming back them.
Oh love your additions!

Niki, these turned out delicious! Do you know how long they will keep in the fridge without losing taste?
Hi Shanina
So happy you like!
I you can stir for a few days but I would store them in the freezer – they keep much longer.

Thank you Nicole xx
These are totally amazing… Highly recommend! And easy… The key is that the avocado is ripe enough to get really creamy and buttery. So Good!

Where do you buy Raiz the bar?
Hi Chele
You can find it on line but any good quality dark chocolate would be delicious.
