Calories: 41kcal
- 5 ounces white chocolate
- ½ avocado
- 2 tablespoon pure maple syrup
- ½ teaspoon pure vanilla essence
- ⅓ cup shelled pistachios
Use a double broiler or a saucepan over low heat to melt the chocolate slowly. Make sure to stir regularly and take off the heat just before the chocolate is completely melted so it doesn't burn
Add the avocado and vanilla to a food processor and process until smooth
Drizzle in the melted chocolate and the maple syrup and process until smooth
The mixture will be runny so place it into the freezer until workable - i.e. you can roll it into a ball without it losing its shape
While the chocolate is in the freezer make your pistachio dust. Place the pistachios in a blender and blend until it resembles a bright green dust
Roll a heaped teaspoon of the chocolate mixutre into a ball and roll in the pistachio dust
Place in a dish lined with parchment paper and refrigerate until ready to serve
