Ingredients

1 cup peanut butter unsweetened or sunflower seed butter for nut free option
1/2 cup butter softened or coconut oil, room temperature or see notes above for MMM™ adapting
1/2 cup Monk Fruit Allulose sweetener or another granulated sugar free sweetener
2 tbsp almond milk unsweetened or use coconut milk for nut free option
1 tsp vanilla extract
1 tsp vanilla liquid stevia
3/4 cup almond flour or sunflower seed meal for nut free option
1/2 tsp salt
optional: sugar-free chocolate chips like Lily's Sweets

Outer Coating

8 ounces unsweetened baking chocolate I used Ghiradelli
1/2 tsp chocolate liquid stevia

Optional: peanut butter drizzle

1/4 cup peanut butter unsweetened
2 tsp coconut oil melted

Instructions

In a stand mixer combine the peanut butter, butter and sweetener and blend until smooth.
Stir in the almond milk, vanilla extract and liquid stevia until combined well.
Last whisk the almond flour and salt together and blend on low in the stand mixer until everything looks well incorporated.
If you are using optional chocolate chips, stir them in gently now.
Scoop 24 portions using a cookie scoop and place onto a parchment-lined cookie sheet. Roll into balls and refrigerate 30 minutes.
Roll each into a nice round ball and refrigerate for 30 minutes while you make the outer chocolate coating.
To make the outer chocolate coating, Melt chocolate in 30-second intervals in a glass bowl (or use a double boiler). Once smooth, stir in chocolate liquid stevia and taste for sweetness.
Dip each truffle into the melted chocolate and return to the parchment paper. Chill until firm.
Once hardened, if using peanut butter drizzle stir the ingredients together and drizzle over the chocolate coating.
Keep refrigerated until ready to serve.

3 g net carbs per truffle

This recipe was first published in Feb of 2016.

For those following my Midlife Macro Method™, these sugar-free truffles can easily be adjusted to fit your goals:

Classic Keto: Full butter or coconut oil = 15g fat per truffle.
MMM Version: Replace half the butter with Greek yogurt or add protein powder = closer to 8–9g fat and 8–10g protein per truffle.

That’s the beauty of this lifestyle — it’s flexible. Whether you’re following a high-fat keto phase or a moderate-fat, high-protein midlife phase, recipes like these can evolve with you.
