Candice's Low Carb Peanut Butter Balls

So I have to be honest.. I am all peanut buttered out! I had this idea in my head to make these when I ordered my peanut flour, so here they are! But I think I am done with sweets for a bit. My sweet tooth has been overfilled! I'm actually craving cheese and pickles now

Recipe can be doubled if needed.
I did not make these overly sweet so if want you can add a few extra drops of liquid sweetener to your desired taste.


Hope you enjoy!

makes 10 pieces


Ingredients:

Peanut Butter Balls:

1/4 cup peanut butter
1.5 tsp(15g) butter
1/8th teaspoon vanilla
1/4 cup peanut flour(I use med roast 12%)
10 drops liquid Sucralose (I use EZ-Sweetz)*

Chocolate Coating:
1 oz unsweetened chocolate
3/4 teaspoon butter(4g)
10 drops liquid Sucralose (I use EZ-Sweetz)*


Instructions:


In heat proof bowl or cup, add butter and peanut butter. Heat in microwave on high for around 40 seconds or until melted.
Stir in vanilla and liquid sweetener.
Last stir in peanut flour. Mix until a dough is formed.

Divide dough into 10 pieces(weigh out approx 11g each)
Roll each piece into a ball and set aside until all are rolled.
Set in refrigerator while you melt your chocolate.

In a small heatproof bowl(or ramekin) heat butter and chocolate in microwave for around 35 seconds, or until chocolate is almost all melted. Take out and stir until you no longer see any chocolate chunks.

Dip each peanut butter ball into the chocolate, be sure not to use too much on the first two or else you are left a little short on the last few.

Place on a parchment paper(or wax paper) lined baking sheet. Repeat until done. Place baking sheet in freezer for around 10-15 minutes, or until set.

Store in an airtight container or baggie in the freezer.

**My bottle says 1 drop = 1 tsp sugar so use less if your bottle says 1 drop = 2 tsp sugar
