Our Disclaimer (The serious stuff)

By using our free meal planner (and the rest of spoonacular.com) you have to agree that you and only you are responsible for anything that happens to you because of something you have read on this site or have bought/cooked/eaten because of this site. After all, the only person who controls what you put in your mouth is you, right?

Spoonacular is a recipe search engine that sources recipes from across the web. We do our best to find recipes suitable for many diets — whether vegetarian, vegan, gluten free, dairy free, etc. — but we cannot guarantee that a recipe's ingredients are safe for your diet. Always read ingredient lists from the original source (follow the link from the "Instructions" field) in case an ingredient has been incorrectly extracted from the original source or has been labeled incorrectly in any way. Moreover, it is important that you always read the labels on every product you buy to see if the product could cause an allergic reaction or if it conflicts with your personal or religious beliefs. If you are still not sure after reading the label, contact the manufacturer.

We also attempt to estimate the cost and calculate the nutritional information for the recipes found on our site. Again, we cannot guarantee the accuracy of this information. Additionally, our nutrition visualizer that suggests that you limit sodium, sugar, etc., and get enough protein, vitamins, and minerals is not intended as medical advice. Similarly, our health tips are based on articles we have read from various sources across the web, and are not based on any medical training. The team behind spoonacular does not possess any medical qualifications and the information may be found to be incorrect or out of date based on future research. If you need help planning your diet or determining which foods (and recipes) are safe for you, contact a registered dietitian, allergist, or another medical professional.

Instructions

Note: needs 30 minutes in fridge. 1. Boil a kettle of water for melting the chocolate in a double boiler. 2. Blend the avocado into a smooth consistency. 3. COAT: Prepare coating ingredients in a bowl (raw cocoa, dessicated coconut, or ground almonds). 4. Cut wax paper to fit into a tray or plate. 5. COOK: Break the chocolate into smaller pieces and melt it in a double boiler over a low heat. Add the salt and vanilla essence. Remove from the heat once the chocolate has melted. Add the chocolate and cocoa powder to the blender with the avocado. Add brown sugar, to taste. 6. Blend or mix the chocolate and avocado mix through until you have a smooth, thick, pudding-like consistency. Transfer the food processor bowl to the fridge for about 30 minutes. 7. After 30 minutes, check the consistency - if it is still too soft to handle, put in fridge for another 5-10 minutes. When solid enough to handle, scoop up a little bit of the stiffened chocolate with a teaspoon and roll it in your hands into a smooth ball. 8. Transfer the ball to the coating and roll it until it is completely covered. Place the covered ball on a tray or plate. 9. Place the chocolate truffles back in the fridge and keep it chilled until serving.
