Low Carb Buckeye Balls Recipe!
This keto recipe is easy to prepare. These peanut butter chocolate balls or buckeye balls are low on carbs.
Ingredients:
• 1 cup peanut butter smooth
• 5 tbsp unsalted butter
• 2 cups powdered sugar ( I used Swerve )
• 1 tsp vanilla extract
• 2 cups semisweet chocolate (Lilly’s)
• 2 tbsp coconut oil
Instructions on how to prepare low carb buckeye balls:
- Cream the peanut butter and butter together with the vanilla extract.
- Add powdered sugar and mix on low until combined. Scrape down bowl and mix again.
- Pinch off tablespoon sized pieces and roll into balls. They can be about 20g if you’re weighing.
- Transfer the balls to a baking sheet and chill until firm for at least 20 minutes.
- Add chocolate and coconut oil to a medium bowl and melt on 50% power in the microwave. Stir the mix to combine and set aside to cool to room temperature.
- Use a skewer or toothpick to dip the peanut butter balls into the chocolate. Leave a bit of the peanut butter exposed for that signature buckeye pea look.
- Chill to allow the chocolate to firm up and enjoy. If you want to remove the holes left from the skewers, run a small knife or spatula over the tops.
