Ingredients

For Chocolate Coating
  • 3 ounce Baking Chocolate unsweetened
  • 3 tbsp Honey or confectioners swerve sweetener
  • 1 tbsp Olive Oil

Instructions
  1. 1st you have to combine all the ingredients, peanut butter, protein powder, sweetener, and vanilla. Mix these ingredients in a food processor or blender and looks like a soft dough.
  2. (Notes: if you don’t like or don’t have protein powder, use almond flour or coconut flour for your keto diet.)
  3. Then make some balls in 1-inch from that soft dough and arrange in a single layer on a baking sheet or a plate. (If you see the dough is so soft add some protein powder or flour to make it a little bit tight. Or if so tight then you can use low-fat milk or dairy-free milk to make that dough soft and tender.)
  4. Freeze these balls for about 20-30 minutes to make the mixture firmer and less sticky.

Chocolate Coating
  1. To prepare chocolate coating, you need to mix chocolate, sweetener, and coconut oil. All these ingredients put in a microwave-safe bowl, microwave in 30-second intervals until melted and smooth.
  2. Take out those peanut butter balls from the freeze. Put toothpick to stab into those peanut butter balls and pour it on the melted chocolate. And place coated balls on parchment paper and remove the toothpick from those balls. Again freeze these balls for more than 1 hour.
  3. Take them out from the freeze and serve as a snack or dessert. So delicious and yum!

Notes
  • You can use chopped peanuts in the balls or over the chocolate coating. 
  • You can use honey or maple syrup instead of sweetener.
  • To make those balls, use a small cookie scoop (or a spoon) to grab balls of dough.
  • Or if you make the balls by hand, make sure to wash your hand properly and cold your hands.
