Ingredients

Scale

Ice Cream Base:

  • 2 cups (480ml) heavy cream
  • 1/2 cup (130g) smooth peanut butter
  • 1/3 cup (65g) granulated stevia (or sweetener of choice)
  • 1 teaspoon pure vanilla extract
  • 1/4 teaspoon xanthan gum

Chocolate Coating:

 

  • 8 ounces (225g) sugar-free dark chocolate, chopped
  • 2 tablespoons (30ml) coconut oil

Instructions

  • Prep the Baking Sheet: Line a baking sheet with parchment paper and place it in the freezer.
  • Make Ice Cream Base: In a medium bowl, combine heavy cream, peanut butter, stevia, vanilla extract, and xanthan gum. Beat with a hand mixer for 2 minutes until smooth and slightly thickened.
  • Partial Freeze: Transfer mixture to freezer for 20 minutes, stirring every 5 minutes to prevent ice crystals.
  • Form Truffles: Using a small cookie scoop, form mixture into balls and place on the frozen baking sheet. Freeze for 15 minutes until very firm.
  • Melt Chocolate: In a small saucepan over low heat, melt chocolate with coconut oil, stirring until smooth. Remove from heat and cool slightly.
  • Coat Truffles: Working in small batches, dip each truffle in melted chocolate using a fork. Let excess drip off and return to baking sheet.
  • Set Chocolate: Freeze coated truffles for at least 10 minutes until chocolate is completely set.

 

  • Serve: Let truffles sit at room temperature for 2-3 minutes before enjoying.
