Chocolate Avocado Truffles

The holidays are not quite over yet.  Not until the last tamal is eaten, all New Year’s resolutions are set and last but not least, the Reyes Magos are celebrated.

The celebration of Los Tres Reyes Magos is a holiday as important as Navidad in our house.  As children, our shoes were stuffed with tiny gifts such as candies and small toys, announcing the arrival of the three kings.

Times have changed but I’ve established the tradition of making my own rosca de reyes (three kings cake), the last few years with a side of dulcecitos to accompany the cafecito as we wait for the rosca to bake.

The candies vary every year.  From dulce de leche chews to crystallized fruit. We tend to get very creative in our home.  This year, I have a special surprise for my family: Avocado Chocolate Truffles!  Chocolatey, creamy and so sweet.  This is the perfect holiday treat to either gift to others or nibble on as we celebrate the season. Plus, we are an avocado and chocolate loving family.

Avocado?  Yes, you read right!  Avocados From Mexico to be exact.  The avocados in this treat give the creamy consistency to this delectable dessert.  A totally unexpected but pleasant surprise.

These sweet, chocolate nibbles are not only available during this time of the year.  You can prepare them anytime you have a sweet tooth because Avocados From Mexico are readily available year-round, they are always fresh and always delicious.

Avocados From Mexico are great as is.  But you might be surprised that avocados are great as an addition to many unexpected foods.  I like to include some in my morning protein shake as well as add them to brothy soups to make them creamy.  I’ve even gone as far as adding them to my cupcake batter and oatmeal cookie recipe for a more buttery feel.  The possibilities are endless.
