Ingredients
- 1 cup peanut butter (or alternative nut or seed butter)
- 1 cup almond flour
- ¼ cup powdered low-carb sweetener (or to taste)
- 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
- 1/8 teaspoon salt (or to taste)
- 1 cup chocolate chips
- 1 tbsp coconut oil
Instructions
- In a bowl mix together peanut butter, almond flour, sweetener, vanilla extract, and salt. Mix well until ingredients are combined.
- Taste and add more sweetener and/or salt if desired. If the mixture is too crumbly, add some water, about half a teaspoon at a time.
- Prepare parchment paper on cutting board or baking sheet. Form the mixture into small balls about 1 inch in diameter.
- Arrange them on the baking paper and then place in fridge for about 1 hour to chill.
- Melt the chocolate and coconut oil in the top of a double boiler or over very low heat in a small saucepan.
- Once melted, use fork or wooden skewers to lower the balls into chocolate, covering 2/3 of the ball in chocolate.
- Let sit on the parchment paper for at least 5 minutes to set, then either transfer to the fridge for at least 30 minutes or place on a cooling rack to set.
Notes
If you choose to use a different nut or seed butter instead of peanut butter, you'll likely want to increase the sweetener because peanuts have an inherent sweetness to them.
