If you ever need a quick & easy dessert or treat to bring with you to a party, I gotchu! These chocolate peanut butter truffles are basically Reese’s cups in ball-form, and I know you’ll love them. Just five ingredients, can customize however you like with alternative nut or seed butters, chocolate, etc. Plus, you can make them with collagen for a boost of protein (plus added benefits for skin, hair, nails, joints and your gut!)!

They also require no baking, are gluten-free, dairy free and deeelicious. All you have to do is mix the ingredients together, form into balls, toss in the freezer to harden and you’re good to go! The perfect chocolate peanut butter combo.
