What are chocolate truffles?

Chocolate truffle is a type of chocolate confectionery, traditionally made with a chocolate ganache centre coated in chocolate, cocoa powder, coconut, or chopped toasted nuts, usually in a spherical, conical, or curved shape.

What ingredients do I need to make these Three Ingredient Chocolate Peanut Butter Truffles?

  • No sugar added chocolate chips– you can use Lily’s no sugar added semi sweetwhite chocolate, milk or dark chocolate chips. You can find Lily’s no sugar added chocolate chips at your local Walmart store of HERE on Amazon.
  • Low point peanut butter – I love using the Better’n Peanut Butter Peanut Butter which is 3 smartpoints for 2 tablepsooons or American Dream Nut Butter- see point values below. 
  • Sugar free cool whip– thawed 

What low point peanut or nut butter do you recommend?

Well, my two favorite whipped peanut butters Jif Whips and Peter Pan 1/3 less fat whipped have both been discontinued-but I have since found a few other brands that I LOVE!

This Better’n Peanut Butter Peanut Butter is only 100 calories, 3 points for 2 Tablespoons, 4 grams of protein, and is Gluten Free, Dairy Free, Palm Oil Free, and Kosher.
