  • 2 scoops vanilla protein powder

  • 2 packets stevia-erythritol sweetener (such as Truvia®)

  • 1 pinch salt

  • cup chopped dry roasted peanuts

Directions

  1. Combine ricotta cheese, peanut butter, peanut butter syrup, and vanilla extract in a bowl and mix with a hand mixer until well combined. Add protein powder, sweetener, and salt; mix until smooth.

Cook's Note:

These truffles will soften up quite a bit so it is best to store them in refrigerator until served.
