1/4 cup powdered erythritol (or your preferred keto sweetener)
1/4 cup unsalted butter, softened
1 tsp vanilla extract
For the Chocolate Coating
1 cup sugar-free chocolate chips
2 tbsp coconut oil
Instructions
Prepare the Peanut Butter Balls:
In a large bowl, mix together the peanut butter, almond flour, coconut flour, powdered erythritol, softened butter, and vanilla extract until well combined.
Roll the mixture into small balls (about 1-inch in diameter) and place them on a baking sheet lined with parchment paper.
Refrigerate the peanut butter balls for about 30 minutes to firm up.
Prepare the Chocolate Coating:
In a microwave-safe bowl, combine the sugar-free chocolate chips and coconut oil.
Microwave in 30-second intervals, stirring between each, until the chocolate is completely melted and smooth.
Dip the Peanut Butter Balls:
Using a toothpick, dip each peanut butter ball into the melted chocolate, leaving a small portion of the peanut butter exposed at the top.
Allow any excess chocolate to drip off before placing the dipped ball back on the parchment-lined baking sheet.
Remove the toothpick and smooth out the hole with your finger or a small spoon.
Set the Chocolate:
Once all the peanut butter balls are coated in chocolate, refrigerate them for another 30 minutes or until the chocolate has fully set.
Serve:
Enjoy your keto-friendly Buckeyes! Store any leftovers in an airtight container in the refrigerator.
Tips
If the peanut butter mixture is too soft to roll, refrigerate it for 10-15 minutes before forming the balls.
You can use crunchy peanut butter if you prefer a bit of texture in your Buckeyes.
Experiment with different keto-friendly nut butters like almond or cashew for a different flavor.
