Low-carb, gluten-free, and sugar-free, these bonbons are ideal for anyone following a keto diet. Packed with creamy peanut butter and cottage cheese, they’re a quick, delicious treat that satisfies your sweet cravings while keeping you on track with your weight loss goals.
Ingredients
- 1/2 cup full- fat cottage cheese
- 1 cup almond flour
- 1/2 cup sugar-free peanut butter creamy
- 1/4 cup Swerve or your favorite low-carb sweetener
- 1 cup sugar-free dark chocolate for coating
- 1 tablespoon coconut oil for coating
Instructions
- In a mixing bowl or food processor, combine the cottage cheese, almond flour, peanut butter, and sweetener. Mix until smooth and fully combined. For a creamier texture, use a high-speed blender or immersion blender to get everything perfectly blended.
- Using a measuring teaspoon, portion out the mixture to ensure equal sizes, then roll into small balls. This helps with portion control. Place them on a baking sheet lined with parchment paper or wax paper to prevent sticking.
- Freeze the peanut butter balls for about 30 minutes to firm them up. This will make them easier to coat with chocolate.
- While the balls are in the freezer, melt the dark chocolate with the coconut oil in the microwave in 30-second intervals, stirring between each until smooth. Alternatively, you can melt the chocolate on the stove over low heat.
- Dip each frozen ball into the melted chocolate, making sure to fully coat them. Let the excess chocolate drip off before placing them back on the parchment paper.
- Let the chocolate set at room temperature, or speed up the process by placing the bonbons back in the freezer for a few minutes.
- Once the chocolate has hardened, they’re ready to enjoy!
Notes
Adjusting the Almond Flour
Depending on the type of cottage cheese you use, the mixture might be too wet or too dry.- If it’s too wet and not forming into balls easily, just add more almond flour, one tablespoon at a time, until it sticks together.
- If it’s too dry, mix in a little more cottage cheese to get the right consistency.
Pro Tips
- For easier mixing, make sure your ingredients are at room temperature.
- To get the perfect creamy texture, try blending your cottage cheese mixture using a food processor or immersion blender.
- If you prefer a smoother finish, use sugar-free chocolate chips..
- You can also use powdered peanut butter mixed with water for a lower-fat option.
