Ingredients
  

  • 1/2 cup mixed nut butter from Trader Joes or natural almond butter
  • 1/4 cup butter
  • 2 tablespoons coconut oil
  • 1 1/2 tablespoon Swerve + 1/4 tsp maple extract or use 1 1/2 - 2 tbsp pure maple syrup
  • 0.5 ounces spiced rum a mini bottle will yield two batches of truffles
  • small pinch of salt
  • OPTIONAL - 10 ounces White chocolate chips + 1 tablespoon coconut oil or white candy coating
  • OPTIONAL -2 tablespoons finely chopped walnuts for topping
  • SUGAR FREE WHITE COATING
  • 1 1/2 cup Swerve Confectioners or your choice
  • 1 cup cocoa butter wafers I use these
  • tiny pinch of salt to balance sweet flavor

Instructions
 

  • Mix everything except the optional ingredients with an immersion blender with the whisk attachment (or just whisk by hand) to fluff it up a bit.
  • Chill for 30 minutes to an hour or until it just starts to get firm, but not too hard or they'll be too hard to form into shapes.
  • Roll into balls. If you use the mold you can just fill the mold and pop them out once they harden.
  • Chill again until fairly hard (or put in the freezer if dipping.) 
  • Melt optional white chocolate chips with up to 1 tablespoon of coconut oil. If desired, chill again and dip a second time.
  • Dip hardened truffles into melted white chocolate OR roll in chopped nuts. 
  • For sugar free white coating, fully melt wafers in a double boiler, stir in Swerve and salt.
