I tried to shortcut these by melting the chocolate in the microwave in 30s increments until smooth, then adding to avocado and vanilla extract. Just a note to others, if you do this too, do not add the vanilla extract as it will seize and harden the chocolate instantly, so my truffles had chocolate chip-like clumps in the middles (not bad if you like a chocolate chip occasionally in the truffles). So for a super quick version, that works! And so satisfying! But I will try the stove method next time and see if I prefer those. Really excited for this recipe though, thank you for creating it, Megan! By the way, your Instant Pot cookbook is hands-down our FAVORITE cookbook out of the 20+ cookbooks I own. My husband dies for the African Peanut Stew, we make that at least twice a month.

Thanks so much for this healthy recipe for a chocolatey treat 🙂 Was lovely, and I will definitely be making this again!

Wow this is incredible and super easy to make!!!!!!!!Thanks

Oh, Megan….let me count the ways that you have helped my family and me!!!
These truffles were a special treat after a 15 day detox that you helped us through with your detox soup and your “beef” stew…You gave us so much beautiful sustenance and really helped change our lives…and then…
I made these! I was nervous at first, because the consistency was really greasy…even after the fridge. But, I balled them up and put them back in the fridge after the cacao coating and the reviews were AHMAZING! My friend’s daughter couldn’t believe that I made them.
You are incredible & we are are so grateful!

Very rich+ very chocolate=what my friend who I am making for will love! (BONUS: you cannot taste the avocado) I used orange extract because I didn’t have vanilla and I rolled them in powdered sugar. My friend is very much a sugar fanatic.
Thank you for the recipe!
OOPs! I also used bittersweet chocolate (66%) because I had that on hand.

In reply to Sarah.

And a blendtec I can make nut butters different flowers hot soups and veggie ice cream consider that it’s a favorite of mine

Omgoodness these are amazing, I rolled mine in sugar free strawberry jelly crystals! Game changer, also I made 17 so were very tasty. Can these be frozen? Thank you

I am thinking of making these as gifts but wondering the same thing about shelf life in fridge??

I’m looking for satisfying vegan sweets to make with minimal fuss and this is the bees knees Thank you *

There are no words in the english language to describe how fabulous these Truffles are. Followed the recipe exactly. Used one medium haas avocado, partially semi sweet morsels and partially unsweetened baker’s chocolate. I am paleo and wanted to use as little sugar as possible. Also rolled in a combination of unsweetened cocoa powder and organic coconut flakes. THANK YOU!!
