Equipment

Instructions 

  • Blend the cottage cheese, powdered peanut butter, oat flour, cocoa powder, maple syrup, vanilla, and salt until thick and completely smooth.
  • Refrigerate the mixture for 30 minutes so it firms enough to shape.

  • Melt the chocolate chips and coconut oil together in a heatproof bowl, stirring every 20 seconds until glossy.
  • Dip each truffle into the melted chocolate and place it on a parchment-lined plate.
