How do I store Peanut Butter Truffles?

To keep your Peanut Butter Truffles fresh, store them in an airtight container in the refrigerator. This will help maintain their creamy center while ensuring the chocolate coating stays firm. They can typically last about a week, but they may be even better consumed within a few days once made!

Can I make these truffles vegan?

Yes! You can substitute the creamy peanut butter with almond butter and choose dairy-free chocolate chips to make a delightful vegan treat. Additionally, check any other packaged ingredients to ensure they are vegan-friendly.

What can I use instead of coconut oil?

Coconut oil helps the chocolate coating stay smooth when melting. If you don’t have it on hand, you can skip it, or substitute with a neutral oil or butter for a similar texture, although it may alter the flavor a bit.

Are there any nut-free options for this recipe?

If you need a nut-free option, consider using sun butter or soy nut butter as a replacement for peanut butter. The taste will change slightly but will still deliver a flavorful truffle!

Can I add ingredients to the truffle mixture?

Absolutely! You can mix in mini chocolate chips, shredded coconut, or crushed nuts into the truffle mixture before rolling it into balls. These additions can elevate the truffle experience and add fun texture!
