Ingredients

Directions

1. Combine chocolate & salt over double boiler, stirring until completely melted.
2. In a food processor, blend together ginger, orange zest, orange juice, & avocado until completely smooth.
Stir avocado puree into melted chocolate until thickened & smooth. Place mixture in refrigerator for 30-40 minutes, or until completely cool & slightly firm to the touch.
3. Once chilled, use a tablespoon to scoop chocolate into 12 balls. Place on cookie sheet lined with wax paper. Roll the balls between the palms of your hands to create a smooth surface. (Warning: This can get messy!)
4. Place 1/4 cup cocoa powder into small bowl. Roll each truffle into cocoa powder to coat. Serve immediately, or place truffles in a sealed container & store in refrigerator.
