Ingredients

Units Scale
For the Truffle Filling:
  • 1 cup creamy peanut butter
  • 4 tablespoons unsalted butter, softened
  • 1/2 teaspoon vanilla extract
  • 1 1/2 cups powdered sugar
For the Chocolate Coating:
  • 8 oz semi-sweet or dark chocolate, chopped
  • 1 teaspoon coconut oil or vegetable shortening (for a smoother coating)
For Garnish (Optional):

 

  • 1/4 cup crushed peanuts
  • Drizzle of melted white chocolate
  • Sea salt flakes

Instructions

Make the Truffle Filling:

  1. Mix Peanut Butter & Butter:

    • In a bowl, beat together peanut butter, softened butter, and vanilla until smooth.
  2. Add Powdered Sugar:

    • Gradually mix in powdered sugar until a thick dough forms.
  3. Shape & Chill:

    • Roll into 1-inch balls and place on a parchment-lined tray.
    • Freeze for 30 minutes to firm up.

Coat in Chocolate:

  1. Melt the Chocolate:

    • In a microwave-safe bowl, melt chocolate and coconut oil in 30-second intervals, stirring until smooth.
  2. Dip the Truffles:

    • Using a fork or toothpick, dip each chilled truffle into the melted chocolate.
    • Let excess drip off and place back on the tray.
  3. Garnish & Set:

    • Sprinkle with crushed peanuts, sea salt, or drizzle with white chocolate.
    • Refrigerate for 30 minutes until the chocolate sets.

Serve & Store:

  1. Enjoy!
    • Serve chilled or at room temperature.
    • Store in an airtight container in the fridge for up to 2 weeks or freeze for 3 months.

Notes

  • Want a crunchier texture? Use crunchy peanut butter instead of creamy.
  • For a Reese’s-inspired taste, add ¼ teaspoon salt to the filling.
  • Dairy-free? Use vegan chocolate and dairy-free butter.
