Author: Kim Lange

Ingredients

Peanut Butter Truffles:

• 1/4 cup unsalted butter
• 1/2 cup smooth peanut butter
• Pinch of salt or two
• 1 ½ cups powdered sugar

Chocolate Coating for Truffles:

• 1 1/2 cup milk chocolate chips
• 1/4 cup semi-sweet chocolate chips

Instructions

• Using a mixer, beat the butter until creamy. Add the peanut butter and salt, and beat until smooth and combined. Add the powdered sugar, and beat on low until combined. The mixture will be crumbly, which is what you want.
• Roll the dough mixture into 1-inch balls and place on a baking tray lined with parchment paper or a silicone mat. You should have about 20 - 25 balls. refrigerate for 40-50 minutes or more.
• Take your peanut butter balls out of the fridge and get ready to coat them.
• Add the chocolate chips to a microwave-safe bowl, and heat in 20 second intervals, stirring after each one, until melted and smooth. Leave to cool for a few minutes.
• Dip each peanut butter ball into the melted chocolate, and place each one onto a baking sheet lined with parchment paper.
• Let truffles set. You can quick-set them to get the chocolate to harden by placing them in the fridge for a 5-10 minutes.
