Cocoa peanut butter truffles make for an easy low carb treat! These creamy, no-bake, truffles are packed with peanut butter and chocolate flavor that makes them so irresistibly good!
peanut butter + chocolate = happiness
So you guys know I’m all about quick, simple, and delicious treats (Exhibit A, Exhibit B, & Exhibit C <– yummo!). So here’s another incredibly easy treat using only 4 ingredients to make it happen! Two of those 4 ingredients are my favorite: peanut butter and chocolate! These are full of flavor and so completely indulgent without any of the guilt!
NO BAKE
No Bake truffles are always the quickest and easiest type treat to whip up because they don’t require a baking agent or any baking time. Who knows how many times we’ve had our own baking fails (or maybe it’s just me!?) either because we got the baking time or temperature wrong. However, no bake bites are so simple to make and they turn out pretty great too.. so give ’em a try!
COATING
You can coat these with pretty much anything. Of course, we used cocoa powder, but some other alternatives might be shredded coconut, crushed almonds, or whatever else floats your boat.
STEPS
Like I said, these are super easy to make. To begin, all you need to do is put all of your ingredients (except for the cocoa powder you’ll use to coat your truffles) in a bowl and thoroughly mix them together, as seen in photos one and then two. To mix our ingredients, we used a hand blender on a medium setting. It’s important to mix your ingredients well enough that the monk fruit melts. Once thoroughly blended, scoop out enough of the mixture to form a truffle that is about the size of a golf ball. Once you have your truffle, roll it in cocoa powder until it is completely covered, like we did in photo three. Repeat this process until all of your truffles are formed, covered, and laid out on a parchment paper covered baking sheet, seen in photo four. If desired, sprinkle some cocoa powder on top of your truffles. Finally, place your truffles in the freezer for an hour so that they can firm up. Ta-da! Now you have yummy, simple, Cocoa Peanut Butter Truffles!
