Who don’t like Keto Peanut Butter Balls, also known as Buckeye Balls??? I know I do!!

These are so easy to make, and so wonderful to eat!

With just a few ingredients and you will be on your way to a low-carb deliciousness.

You will need some no sugar added peanut butter, some softened butter, some powdered erythritol and some vanilla. That’s all it takes for the balls.

Mix this up really good (yes, get your hands in there!) and roll into balls.

For the chocolate coating you will need to melt sugar free chocolate chips and some parafin together in a double boiler and then just dip the balls and place back on the silicone mat or wax or parchment paper, whatever you choose to use, and let them dry.

I know parafin may seem a bit odd, and some might come up against this, but this is what I have always used on these. I did some research on this since I was now converting my old-faithful recipe over to keto. I had to know if this could this still be used in my keto goodies.

Here is some good info concerning wax and here.

The wonderful thing about using parafin wax in this recipe, it’s like it seals the balls and they won’t melt in your hand. I have melted coconut oil with chocolate in other candies, but in no time at all they always melt in my hand, but not these. No real need to store these Keto Peanut Butter Balls in the fridge either, unless they are going to be around for a while. I have had mine in a sealed container on the counter top for up to a week (that’s about as long as we keep them around).
