5 Ingredient Avocado Truffles

Rich and decadent Avocado Truffles made with 5 simple ingredients! So easy to make and perfect for a healthier dessert for any occasion. A guilt-free dessert that is gluten free and vegan friendly! 

These Avocado Truffles are the perfect healthier dessert for any occasion! No one will know that these truffles have a secret ingredient in them – avocados. Traditional truffles have heavy cream in them – this recipe uses avocado in replacement of the dairy fat with a plant-based fat to still give a rich and decadent taste but in a healthier way.

Tips for Making Avocado Truffles

• Use high quality dark chocolate for these truffles.
• You can use different toppings to dip your truffles in – such as finely chopped nuts, sprinkles, or mini chocolate chips.
• To keep truffles fresh and firm, refrigerate in a sealed container.
