Surprise Peanut Butter Truffles Sp5 Recipes

PEANUT BUTTER TRUFFLES

Steps:

• Scald cream in a small saucepan. Remove from heat and chill. Combine white chocolate and peanut butter together in a mixing bowl and blend together. Add chilled whipping cream and continue blending at high speed until a smooth consistency is achieved. Pour mixture into a suitable container and place in the refrigerator for 24 hours, to allow mixture to set.
• Using a melon baller, or a number 70 scoop, form the mixture into balls. Place balls on a sheet pan and into the refrigerator to firm up.
• Melt the dark chocolate over a double boiler. Gently dip each ball in the melted chocolate so that it's fully coated. Decorate with crushed peanuts. Keep truffles in the refrigerator until required.

PEANUT BUTTER AND POTATO CHIP TRUFFLES

Steps:

• Line a baking sheet with parchment paper. Combine the peanut butter and butter in a large bowl and beat with a mixer on medium speed until smooth, 1 to 2 minutes. Gradually add the confectioners' sugar, then the vanilla; beat until the mixture comes together in clumps, 1 to 2 minutes. Add the crushed potato chips and beat until combined.
• Roll the mixture into tablespoon-size balls (about 36); arrange on the prepared baking sheet. Refrigerate while you melt the chocolate.
• Put the chocolate in a medium heatproof bowl set over a saucepan of simmering water (do not let the bowl touch the water). Let melt, stirring occasionally, about 10 minutes. Remove the bowl from the saucepan. One at a time, dip the truffles in the melted chocolate with a spoon, letting the excess drip back into the bowl, then return to the baking sheet. Push a large potato chip piece into each truffle. Refrigerate until the chocolate sets, at least 15 minutes, or freeze until ready to serve.

PEANUT BUTTER COOKIE DOUGH TRUFFLES

Steps:

• Line a baking sheet with parchment paper.
• Microwave the flour in a small microwave-safe bowl for 1 minute. Remove and stir well. Microwave for an additional minute or until the temperature reaches 180 degree F. Sift in a medium bowl, then whisk in the baking powder and salt (see Cook's Note).
• Beat the peanut butter, granulated sugar, brown sugar, butter, yogurt and vanilla with an electric mixer on medium-high speed in a large bowl until well combined, about 2 minutes. Add the flour mixture, and mix on low speed until well incorporated. (Turn off the mixer and use your hands to help combine if needed.)
• Scoop tablespoonfuls of the dough, and roll them into smooth balls. Put them on the prepared baking sheet, and refrigerate until chilled, about 1 hour.
• Melt the chocolate chips and shortening in a medium microwave-safe bowl in the microwave in 30-second increments, stirring in between, until the coating is smooth and thin. Drop the chilled balls into the coating, and roll them around with a fork to fully coat. Remove each truffle with the fork, letting any excess coating drip off, and return to the baking sheet. (If the coating begins to harden, microwave it for a few seconds to warm it up and thin it out.) Chill the truffles until the coating is completely set, about 1 hour. (The truffles can be refrigerated in an airtight container for up to 5 days.)
