In reply to CHRIS WOJCIESZYN. This recipe was written back in 2015 and I did not know of Lily's sweets brand which is sugar free chocolate made with stevia, so that is what I use today.

All Lindt I found has regular sugar in it – so that makes this recipe not sugar free – correct?

I use a mini muffin pan and put mini muffin papers in it then use a Oneida sm scoop to fill pan freeze a little while. Then use a teaspoon to spoon choc on buckeyes then refreeze. When done put all of them in gal ziplock to put in freezer for safe keeping
To take out when wanted.

How can you get 4 1/2 doz out of 1 cup of PB?? These must be extremely tiny OR you are making lots more of this recipe than it look like!

I skipped the vanilla protein powder and used PB2 and kept adding until I got the desired consistency for rolling the balls. I also added a little wax to the chocolate to help them stay firm once set. They actually turned out perfectly.
Great option for my family members who are sugar free/low carb. 🙂 Thank you!

Looks like I’m the odd one out here but Im currently giving up on these.. I followed the directions exactly and they are so runny. I am using smuckers natural and i see someone mentioned theirs were runny too, so i did what they suggested and tried adding a little almond flour and whey protein… still runny. Tried adding more…. still runny. At this point I’ve probably added about half a bag of almond flower and an extra cup or more of whey protein and now they don’t even taste good anymore… And they are still runny. I tried to scoop them onto the cookie sheet and they just turned into a flat blob. I tried scooping and rolling and they Definately didn’t make a precise ball.. Just a huge mess! I’m not sure what I’m doing wrong, but it’s not going well. Big waste of time and money and now I’m stuck cleaning up the very unsuccessful mess. Big fail for me.. I’m sure they’re great if I could just figure them out. Thanks for the recipe but I probably won’t try again. :/

In reply to Maryann. The serving size mentioned is 3 balls. So under the title there are 18 servings which is 18 times 3 which equals 54. That is the 4 1/2 dozen total balls you will get in this recipe.

Whoa this is a little confusing. Serving size 18, but make 4.5. Dozen balls.
They’re either huge for 18 count or super small for 4.5 dozen balls.
Help.

I use coconut oil instead of butter in the chocolate, it works great. Love your recipe. I have been using almond butter as well they are really good. Although sometimes they need a little almond flour to thicken up.

oh yea Brenda I forgot to mention that I added a bit of pink salt to taste and used Pyure erythritol sweetener with stevia and some pure sucralose (sukrin) in there also ..

HI..I made this recipe tonight and it taste just lovely ! .. I got the smuckers natural peanut butter and with all that oil in the top and needless to say it was more runny than I desired so I used some powdered peanut butter and the vanilla whey protein to thicken it up ..they are in the freezer right now getting hard so I can dip them in the lindt chocolate 90 % and butter .. this is gonna be an awesome sweet fix as me and hubby both love chocolate and peanut butter ! Thanks Brenda

In reply to Ann. I have but not in this recipe, I think it would work though.

Brenda, have you ever tried coconut oil in place of the butter?

In reply to Veronica. Swerve is much less sweeter than many granulated substitutes that are sugar free.
