How to Make Peanut Butter Coconut Truffles

Putting these delicious little truffles together couldn’t be easier. Before you start, make sure you are using room temperature ingredients. Next, cream together the butter and peanut butter. Add in the powdered sugar and shredded coconut. You will only be able to stir these ingredients together so much before you’ll have to switch to manually kneading them.

Then, line a small cookie sheet with parchment paper or non-stick foil. Roll the peanut butter dough into small balls using a scoop like this Wilton Cookie Scoop from Amazon. You should be able to get around 15-16 balls from this recipe. Freeze the truffles while you make the chocolate coating.

Microwave the chocolate chips with the coconut oil until melted, stopping to stir every couple of seconds so that you don’t burn the chocolate. Dip the frozen balls into the melted chocolate and let the excess coating drizzle off. Return to freezer for a couple of minutes.

Lastly, garnish with peanut butter drizzle and shredded coconut flakes. Then return to freezer for a couple of minutes to let the drizzle set. Store in an airtight refrigerator container for up to a week.

    I made these without the chocolate and coconut oil and they were so good but I’m sure they’re even better with chocolate! They’re very easy to make too!

    Oh wow, so pretty. Do you think I can substitute powdered sugar for low-carb sweeteners? I’m making this for sure!
