# Ingredients:

→ Truffle Filling

01 - 1 cup creamy peanut butter
02 - 4 tablespoons unsalted butter, softened
03 - 1/2 teaspoon vanilla extract
04 - 1 1/2 cups powdered sugar

→ Chocolate Coating

05 - 8 ounces semi-sweet or dark chocolate, chopped
06 - 1 teaspoon coconut oil or vegetable shortening

→ Garnish (Optional)

07 - 1/4 cup crushed peanuts
08 - Drizzle of melted white chocolate

# Instructions:

01 - In a bowl, beat together peanut butter, softened butter, and vanilla until smooth.
02 - Gradually mix in powdered sugar until a thick dough forms.
03 - Roll into 1-inch balls and place on a parchment-lined tray. Freeze for 30 minutes to firm up.
04 - In a microwave-safe bowl, melt chocolate and coconut oil in 30-second intervals, stirring until smooth.
05 - Using a fork or toothpick, dip each chilled truffle into the melted chocolate. Let excess drip off and place back on the tray.

07 - Serve chilled or at room temperature. Store in an airtight container in the fridge for up to 2 weeks or freeze for 3 months.

# Notes:

01 - Want a crunchier texture? Use crunchy peanut butter instead of creamy.
02 - For a Reese’s-inspired taste, add 1/4 teaspoon salt to the filling.
03 - Dairy-free? Use vegan chocolate and dairy-free butter.
