Ingredients

  • 1 cup natural peanut butter (smooth or crunchy)
  • 1/4 cup powdered erythritol or keto-friendly sweetener
  • 1/2 teaspoon vanilla extract
  • 1 cup sugar-free dark chocolate chips
  • 1 tablespoon coconut oil

Instructions

  1. Mix Peanut Butter Filling: In a mixing bowl, combine the peanut butter, powdered erythritol, and vanilla extract until smooth.
  2. Form the Buckeyes: Scoop out tablespoon-sized portions of the peanut butter mixture and roll them into balls. Place them on a parchment-lined baking sheet and refrigerate for about 30 minutes until firm.
  3. Melt Chocolate: In a microwave-safe bowl, combine the sugar-free chocolate chips and coconut oil. Heat in 30-second intervals, stirring until completely melted and smooth.
  4. Coat the Buckeyes: Remove the chilled peanut butter balls from the fridge. Using a fork, dip each ball into the melted chocolate, coating them completely. Return them to the parchment-lined baking sheet.
  5. Chill: Place the chocolate-covered Buckeyes back in the refrigerator for about 15 minutes to set the chocolate.
