Almond Butter Truffles
Looking for a low-carb treat that’s quick, easy, and perfect year-round? These Almond Butter Truffles are just what you need! Ready in under 30 minutes, they’re not only a breeze to whip up but can also be made ahead of time for added convenience.
Ingredients
- 8 ounces cream cheese
- 1 cup creamy almond butter sugar free
- ½ cup confectioners monkfruit sweetener
- 2 teaspoons vanilla extract
- ¾ cup Lily's white sugar-free chocolate chips
- 2 tablespoons coconut oil
- 3 tablespoons finely chopped salted almonds
Instructions
- Combine the cream cheese, almond butter, sweetener, and vanilla extract in a mixing bowl and beat with an electric mixer until smooth and creamy.
- Roll the cheesecake mixture into tablespoon-sized balls (this is easier if you chill it for a few minutes first). Freeze the cheesecake balls at least 20 minutes so it is easier to dip them into the warm chocolate.
- Melt the chocolate and coconut oil to make the chocolate coating. You can use a double broiler or melt in a microwave-safe bowl, heating in 30 second increments at 50% power.
- Dip the cheesecake balls into the chocolate, and place on a silicone or wax paper lined baking sheet.
- Sprinkle the top of the truffles with the chopped salted almonds before the chocolate dries.
