For a healthier option, try these peanut butter stevia cookies. Made with natural stevia instead of sugar, these cookies are lower in calories and sugar while still being delicious. They have a soft and chewy texture and are perfect for those following a low-sugar or keto diet.
Ingredients:
Peanut Butter Filling:
1 cup creamy peanut butter
1/2 cup powdered sugar
1/4 cup unsalted butter, softened
1/2 teaspoon vanilla extract
Chocolate Coating:
1 cup milk chocolate chips
1 tablespoon vegetable shortening
Instructions:
In a medium bowl, mix together the peanut butter filling ingredients until well combined and smooth.
Roll the peanut butter mixture into small balls and place them on a baking sheet lined with parchment paper. Place the baking sheet in the freezer for 15-20 minutes to firm up the balls.
In a microwave-safe bowl, melt the milk chocolate chips and vegetable shortening in 30-second intervals, stirring in between, until smooth.
Using a fork, dip each peanut butter ball into the melted chocolate mixture, making sure to coat it completely. Place the coated balls back on the parchment paper and return to the freezer for another 15 minutes.
Once the chocolate has hardened, remove the balls from the freezer and using a spoon, drizzle any remaining melted chocolate over them to create a decorative pattern.
Return the balls to the freezer for another 10 minutes to allow the chocolate to set completely.
Remove the balls from the freezer and serve immediately or store them in an airtight container in the fridge until ready to serve.
