Step 1
Start by putting the ricotta cheese, peanut butter, peanut butter syrup, and vanilla extract into a bowl. Use a hand mixer to blend everything together until it’s nice and smooth. Next, add the protein powder, sweetener, and a pinch of salt, then mix again until the mixture is creamy and well combined. Once that’s ready, scoop out small amounts and roll them into 1-inch balls with your hands. Toss each ball in some chopped peanuts so they get a nice coating. Pop the truffles into the fridge and let them chill until you’re ready to enjoy.
