Chocolate Cashew Butter Truffles

Prep Time25 mins

Total Time25 mins

Servings: Truffles

Ingredients

1-2 cups ZenSweet monk fruit sweetener powdered in a high speed blender or coffee grinder
1 cup cashew butter, almond or peanut butter
4 tbsp butter or non-dairy butter room temperature
1 tsp vanilla extract
1/4 tsp sea salt
9 oz bittersweet (70% plus cacao) dark chocolate chips or chunks
Flaky sea salt and red sprinkles optional for decorating

Instructions

In a medium sized mixing bowl, using an electric mixer on medium speed, beat ZenSweet to taste, nut butter of your choice, butter, vanilla, and salt until the dough forms into a ball, about 2 minutes
Roll the “dough” into 1 inch balls and place on parchment-lined baking sheet
Freeze until firm, about 20 minutes
Once the balls are firm, place chocolate in a dish and microwave in 30-second increments, stirring between each, until melted and smooth
Line a second baking sheet with parchment paper
Working with a quarter of the balls at a time (keep remaining frozen), dip in the melted chocolate one at a time, letting excess chocolate drip off, and transfer to the newly prepared baking sheet
If desired, sprinkle with flaky salt and/or sprinkles
Repeat with remaining nut butter balls
