Homemade Ferrero Rocher Recipe

When you're in the mood for a classic chocolate truffle look no further than this homemade Ferrero Rocher recipe. My version is sugar free and actually nutritious because the filling is made with avocado! And just in case you're wondering - no, you cannot taste the avocado at all. You're getting exactly what you've signed up for: chocolatey, creamy goodness by the mouthful!
