Recipe Categories:
Start by peeling and pitting 2 ripe avocados and placing them in a mixing bowl. Add 1/2 cup of unsweetened cocoa powder to the avocados.
Pour in 1/4 cup of pure maple syrup for sweetness. Sprinkle in 1 teaspoon of ground cinnamon for warmth.
Use a hand mixer to blend the ingredients until smooth and creamy. Once the mixture is well combined, taste and adjust sweetness if necessary by adding more maple syrup.
Chill the mixture in the refrigerator for about 15 minutes to firm it up slightly. After chilling, use a small cookie scoop or your hands to form the mixture into bite-sized balls.
Roll each truffle in a plate of cocoa powder or finely chopped nuts for a decorative touch. Place the rolled truffles on a parchment-lined baking sheet.
Finally, sprinkle a pinch of flaky sea salt on top of each truffle for a burst of flavor. Refrigerate the truffles for at least 30 minutes before serving to allow them to set.
Enjoy these decadent treats as a quick dessert after a busy weeknight dinner!
