Easy 4-Ingredient Peanut Butter Truffles for Valentine’s Day

Not that we can’t make a treat like this any day of the year. It’s just that these Peanut Butter Truffles seem best served as a special Valentine’s Day treat. Perhaps we should make a trial batch here in January though? And maybe remind ourselves how to make them sometime next April? Then again in August. All that to say, who am I to tell you when to make these truffles? I totally and completely support your truffle-making choices.

I love how easy these are to make. I love that the only sugar in them is what is already in the chocolate chips. I love the peanut butter-chocolate combo. I love…well, love. So see? These are perfect to make for Valentine’s Day!

*I use homemade peanut butter from one of the following recipes:

  • Peanut Butter (just peanuts!)
  • Peanut Butter (super creamy – like Skippy or Jif)

Roll these truffles in powdered sugar for a fun variety. And place them into holiday colored mini-muffin liners to make them festive!

    I’ve made this recipe several times, since you posted it several years ago. The truffles don’t last long in our house! They are delicious!!! My nephew loves them, so on his birthday, he gets a box of Peanut Butter Truffles. : )

    I’ve made these truffles a few times in the last several years and they are always enjoyed. I made them today for a special treat for my family but used almond butter this time. They were still a big hit! Thank you, Laura ??
