Cooking instruction summary:

In a medium bowl, stir together the oat flour, cornstarch, baking soda and salt. Set aside.In a large bowl, using an electric hand mixer, beat together the mashed avocado, cane sugar and coconut sugar until well combined. Add in the egg yolks and vanilla extract and beat again until smooth and combined. If you have a few small pieces of avocado, its totally ok.Stir in the flour mixture until a sticky dough forms. Make sure to really scrape down the sides and get all the flour mixed in.Cover the bowl and place into the freezer for 45 minutes.Once chilled, spray 2 cookies sheets with cooking spray and preheat your oven to 325 degrees.Drop the dough by 1 Tablespoons balls onto the prepared cookie sheets. The dough is sticky, but try to roll them into balls as much as possible. I find it helps to wash your hands off every few cookies, or keep your hands damp while rolling.Use your thumb (or any finger) to make a deep hole in the center of the cookie, gently pulling it open to give it a little width. Again, damp hands help.Place the cookie sheets back into the freezer to chill for 15 minutes.Bake until the tops of the cookies just look set, about 13-14 minutes. They will feel very soft, but they cook more as they cool.While the cookies cook, it's time to make the filling:Place the avocado into a food processor and blend until smooth.Place the chocolate chips in microwave-safe bowl and microwave in 20 second intervals, on half power, stirring between each interval, until the chocolate is smooth and melted.Pour the melted chocolate, along with all the remaining ingredients, and process until smooth and well combined.Once the cookies come out of the oven, you'll notice the holes have puffed up and aren't very deep anymore. Working quickly, use your finger (the cookies aren't very hot) to reshape the holes, making sure they're fairly deep.While the cookies cool on the pan for 5 minutes, fill each hole with 1 tsp of the truffle mixture.Once 5 minutes are up, gently transfer to a wire rack to cool completely.DEVOUR.

Food Joke

Little Tommy was doing very badly in math. His parents had tried everything; tutors, flash cards, special learning centers, in short, everything they could think of. Finally in a last ditch effort, they took Tommy down and enrolled him in the local Catholic School. After the first day, little Tommy comes home with a very serious look on his face. He doesn't kiss his mother hello. Instead, he goes straight to his room & starts studying. Books & papers are spread out all over the room and little Tommy is hard at work. His mother is amazed. She calls him down to dinner and to her shock, the minute he is done he marches back to his room without a word and in no time he is back hitting the books as hard as before. This goes on for sometime, day after day while the mother tries to understand what made all the difference. Finally, little Tommy brings home his report card. He quietly lays it on the table and goes up to his room and hits the books. With great trepidation, his mom looks at it and to her surprise, little Tommy got an A in math. She can no longer hold her curiosity. She goes to his room and says: "Son, what was it? Was it the nuns?" Little Tommy looks at her and shakes his head "No". "Well then", she replies, "was it the books, the discipline, the structure, the uniforms, WHAT was it?". Little Tommy looks at her and says, "Well, on the first day of school, when I saw that guy nailed to the plus sign, I knew they weren't fooling around.
