Recipes   Gluten Free     Keto     Seasonal     Sweets    

Ingredients

Buckeyes

  • ½ cup natural peanut butter
  • ½ cup water
  • ½ cup Swerve Confectioners
  • ¼ teaspoon salt
  • ¾ cup peanut flour

White Chocolate Coating

  • 4oz cacao butter
  • 2oz unsalted butter
  • 1 cup Swerve Confectioners
  • ½ teaspoon vanilla extract
  • 12 sugar free chocolate chips (such as Lily’s)

Instructions

Buckeyes

  1. In a large bowl, whisk together the peanut butter, water, Swerve Confectioners, and salt.
  2. Add the peanut flour and stir until combined.  Mixture should be thick and fudgy, like cookie dough.  Cover and refrigerate while you make the coating.

White Chocolate Coating

  1. In a heatproof bowl set over a saucepan of lightly simmering water, add the cacao butter and unsalted butter.  Stir occasionally until completely melted and smooth.
  2. Whisk in the Swerve Confectioners and vanilla extract.  Let cool for 30 minutes, whisking occasionally.
  3. Line a cookie sheet with parchment paper.  Use a cookie scoop to portion evenly-sized scoops of cookie dough onto the prepared sheet.  Roll the scoops into balls and place a toothpick in each ball.
  4. Once the chocolate has thickened and is just barely warm, dip the balls into the chocolate, leaving about a centimeter of it uncovered.  Place the balls back onto the cookie sheet and remove the toothpicks.
  5. Press a chocolate chip into the balls where the toothpick was.  Refrigerate for 30 minutes, or until the chocolate has hardened.
  6. Serve and enjoy!
