Peanut Butter Truffles

Peanut Butter Truffles

INGREDIENTS

1/4 cup Finely Ground Almond Flour

1/4 cup Peanut Butter Protein Powder (I used Matrix brand)

1/4 cup Natural Peanut Butter (I used Skippy Natural)

Water

Dark Chocolate Squares

Coconut Oil

DIRECTIONS

Combine almond flour, protein powder and peanut butter.  Mix together with a fork until all ingredients are combined.  This mix is very dry and will not stick together.

Add water a little at a time until the mixture comes together into a cookie dough-like consistency.  Form small dough balls from one tablespoon of the mixture at a time placing onto a pan lined with parchment paper.

Melt dark chocolate squares with about 1/2 to 1 teaspoon of coconut oil in microwave safe bowl.  Heat in 30 second increments, stirring in between times, until everything is melted and combined.

Drop the peanut butter balls one a time into the chocolate, completely covering them.  Place back onto the parchment paper.  Move candies to you choice of the refrigerator or freezer to set.  These are wonderful treats frozen!

**Note on dark chocolate:  I used Lindt 90% cocoa dark chocolate and added 2 packets of Splenda as it melted for sweetness.
