Chocolate, Orange Truffle Pie

Servings: 12
Preparation Time: 15 prep, 3 hours chill

Ingredients:

  • juice and finely shredded zest from one large orange
  • 1/2 cup honey
  • 1/2 cup coconut oil
  • 1/2 cup unsweetened cocoa powder
  • 2 ripe avocados, about 5 ounces apiece
  • 1 1/2 teaspoons vanilla extract
  • 1/8 teaspoon salt
  • one 8-inch pie crust of your choice
  • fudge sauce
  • whipped cream

Directions:

Measure orange juice; add a little water or more juice to equal 1/2 cup. Put the orange juice, zest (should be about 1 tablespoon), honey, coconut oil, cocoa, avocados, vanilla, and salt in a blender or food processor. Run on high for 1–2 minutes until smooth.

Pour into prepared crust. Cover and refrigerate 2–3 hours until set. Let stand at room temperature 20–30 minutes before serving for softer texture.

Serve with a drizzle of fudge sauce and some whipped cream.

This pie can be frozen and thawed without messing up the texture.
