Ingredients
Scale
- 1½ cups semisweet chocolate chips
- ½ cup creamy peanut butter
- ¼ cup unsalted butter
- ½ teaspoon vanilla extract
- ½ teaspoon salt
- 2 cups powdered sugar (divided)
- 2 cups Rice Chex cereal, crushed into fine crumbs
Instructions
1. Make the Truffle Filling:
- In a microwave-safe bowl, melt chocolate chips, peanut butter, and butter in 30-second intervals, stirring in between until smooth.
- Stir in vanilla extract and salt.
- Let the mixture cool slightly, then refrigerate for about 1 hour until firm enough to scoop.
2. Form the Truffles:
- Scoop small portions (about 1 tablespoon each) and roll into smooth balls.
- Place on a parchment-lined tray and freeze for 15-20 minutes until firm.
3. Coat the Truffles:
- In a shallow dish, mix 1½ cups powdered sugar with crushed Chex cereal.
- Roll each truffle in the coating mixture until fully covered.
4. Serve & Enjoy!
- Keep chilled until ready to serve. These truffles are best cold for the perfect texture!
Notes
- Extra Crunch? Roll the truffles in crushed Chex before coating them in powdered sugar for added texture.
- Make It Sweeter: Add 1-2 tablespoons of honey or maple syrup to the chocolate mixture for extra sweetness.
- Storage: Keep in an airtight container in the fridge for up to a week or freeze for up to 3 months.
