Prep: 20

Chill 30

Total: 50

Yield:52 buckeyes

1 ½ cups creamy peanut butter see Notes
½ cup butter softened
½ teaspoon vanilla extract
16 ounces Swerve Confectioners note that this is 1 ⅓ bags if using 12-ounce bags
9 ounces Lily's Semi-sweet Chocolate Chips one bag
1 tablespoon coconut oil

Stir together peanut butter, butter, vanilla extract, and Swerve confectioner’s sugar. Roll into balls about 1-inch in diameter, chilling if necessary to roll.
Combine chocolate chips and coconut oil in a medium bowl. Microwave 60 seconds then stir well. Continue microwaving in 30-second bursts, stirring very well in between bursts, until chocolate is smooth and melted.
One by one, stick a toothpick into the peanut butter ball, then dip into melted chocolate mixture, leaving only a bare circle at the top. Alternately, use a fork to dip peanut butter balls.
Place on a baking sheet, lined with wax or parchment paper. While soft, remove toothpicks from buckeyes and smooth peanut butter to cover toothpick hole. Place baking sheet in refrigerator and chill until hardened.

Make sure you use the lowest carb peanut butter you can find, with no added sugar.
Lily's Semi-sweet Chocolate Chips are the lowest in carbs that I've found.
Santa Cruz Organic Dark Roasted Peanut Butter is the lowest in carbs that I've found.
