Nutter Butter Balls

oz package Nutter Butter cookies

oz cream cheese, softened

sugar

peanut butter

salt,

oz chocolate melting wafers

Sprinkles,

Sea salt, for topping

Add the Nutter Butters to a food processor and process until a fine crumbs forms. Reserve 1 tablespoon of crumbs for topping, if desired.

Add in the cream cheese, sugar, and peanut butter and process until combined. Add salt, if desired.

Use a medium cookie scoop to portion out the mixture and roll into balls. Place them on a parchment lined baking sheet and continue until all of the mixture is in ball form.

Add the melting wafers to a bowl and melt on 30-second intervals stirring between each addition until smooth.

Use a spoon and fork to dip each of the balls in the chocolate and gently slide off the fork onto the parchment paper to set.After every 4th ball, top the balls with Nutter Butter crumbs, sprinkles or sea salt before the chocolate sets.

Allow the balls to set at room temperature for about 30 minutes until hardened or place in the fridge for about 10 minutes to speed up the process.

Store balls in an airtight container in the refrigerator for up to 2 weeks. 

Nutter Butters are my hubby's favorite, so I knew I had to try this immediately. He loved them! I will be making more for gifts around the holidays.

These were amazing! I love the flavors, just like a nutter butter!  Making again soon :)

Nutter Butter Truffles bring chocolate and peanut butter together in an easy to make 5-ingredient recipe.

Nutter Butter Truffles

block of cream cheese (softened at room temperature)

vanilla extract

bag ghirardelli chocolate melting wafers

crisco shortening

Prepare a large cookie sheet with parchment paper and set aside.

In a medium mixing bowl mix together the crushed nutter butter cookies (reserving about ¼ cup for garnishing the final product), cream cheese and vanilla using an electric hand or stand mixer. Blend until the mixture is “dough-like”.

Using a 1-½  inch cookie scoop, scoop the mixture and roll into 1 - 1-½ inch balls. Use the palms of your hands to smooth and round each ball. Do this until the mixture is completely used. See notes for additional tips.

Place each truffle ball on the sheet of parchment paper and place inside the refrigerator for 1 hour.

About 5-10 minutes before the chilling time is complete, begin to prepare your melting chocolate. Place the wafers in a microwave safe bowl and heat on 50% power or on defrost mode for 1 minute. Stir with a fork and add the crisco shortening. Return to the microwave for an additional 30 seconds. Repeat until the wafers are silky smooth. See notes for additional tips.

Using two forks or dipping tools, dip each truffle ball into the melted chocolate, covering it completely. Roll the ball, working it into the chocolate to cover it completely.

Place each chocolate covered truffle on parchment paper and top with a large pinch of the nutter butter crumbs. Repeat this process for each truffle, working one at a time.

Place inside the refrigerator and allow to cool for an additional 30 minutes before serving.
