Prep time: 45min - 1 hr
Total time: 45min - 1 hr
Serves: 12-14
Ingredients
½ cup pumpkin puree
½ cup peanut butter (any nut butter will work)
1 tbsp maple syrup
½ tsp cinnamon
1 ½ dark chocolate chunks (I like Enjoy Life or Hu Kitchen as they don’t have emulsifiers)
2 tbsp unsalted peanuts, chopped
Instructions
In a large bowl, mix together pumpkin, peanut butter, maple syrup, and cinnamon until thoroughly combined. Chill in the fridge for 30-45 minutes or until mixture is firm enough to roll into balls.
Roll into approximately 1 inch round balls and stick in the freezer for about 15-20 minutes to firm for dipping.
While the balls are in the freezer, put your chocolate in a microwave safe bowl and melt it by microwaving in 30 second intervals, stirring the chocolate after every 30 seconds until completely melted. Prepare a sheet pan or plate with wax or parchment paper.
Using a spoon or fork, roll the peanut butter pumpkin balls in the melted dark chocolate until it’s fully covered and then place on the prepared sheet or plate.
Store in the fridge or freezer.
