- Next, place the avocado meat, maple syrup, and salt into a food processor and blend until smooth. You will need to stop and scrape the sides as you go. Add the melted chocolate and continue mixing until incorporated.
- Next, chill the mixture in the freezer for 15 minutes. Once chilled, use a melon baller to scoop chocolate into half inch balls. Roll the balls in shredded coconut. Serve immediately or chill until ready to serve.

Notes
- Melt your chocolate in the microwave, in 20 sec increments, this stops the chocolate from burning.
- You want to use ripe avocados for these Vegan Truffles.
- If the avocado yields to firm gentle pressure you know it's ripe. Ripe avocados may have a darker color but color can vary so it is best to go by feel as well.
- If you have one, use a melon baller to scoop chocolate into balls.
- You can use vegan chocolate bars instead of chips, just make sure to break them up and weigh them.
- You only want the avocado meat, not the skins!
- Have fun with rolling the truffles in different toppings.
- Chill until ready to serve.
- Best served withing 24 hours.
