You haven’t had a truffle, until you have these Chubby Hubby Buckeye Peanut Butter Truffles. They are out of this world.
They are the best during the holidays, but let’s be real, they are the best all year long. Peanut butter and chocolate lovers, unite. You won’t want to miss this one.
I finally gave in and have made them more than once. They are so easy and DELICIOUS. I love anything with peanut butter and chocolate.
Each batch makes 18 truffles (or more, depending on the size you make them), so they are great for a crowd.
What is a substitute for shortening?
Shortening works great in this recipe, however, if you are looking for a substitute, we recommend using vegetable oil.
You could also use butter, but we have found vegetable oil makes a great substitute.

Have made the Chunky Monkey cookies too. My two year granddaughter asked my last week for chunky monkey. : )
I am not sure if it would work using coconut oil. It might change the taste quite a bit, but I haven't worked with coconut oil much. Sorry I am not more help! Let us know if you try it!
I'm from Ohio so we are big on the whole buckeye theme!!
I'd love for you to share this or any Pinterest recipe over at my blog today!!
I'm doing a new Pinterest foodie party!
Although I made a completely different recipe (with home-made cashews butter, chocolate chip cookies and milk chocolate), still I want to thank you for the inspiration! It was a lovely bonding afternoon with my husband. :)
