Ingredients  


Instructions

  • Add the flour to a small bowl and microwave for FIVE 15-second intervals, stirring between each one to heat treat the flour. After Heat Treating the flour, it should reach a temperature of at least 160°F. Allow the flour to cool for 5 minutes after the last round.
    1 cup all-purpose flour
  • In a medium bowl, cream together the peanut butter, butter, light brown sugar, and granulated sugar until light and fluffy.
    ⅓ cup creamy peanut butter, ¼ cup unsalted butter, ¼ cup light brown sugar, ¼ cup granulated sugar
  • Beat in the heavy cream, vanilla, and salt until smooth.
    2 tablespoons heavy cream, 1 teaspoon vanilla extract, ¼ teaspoon salt
  • Beat in the cooled flour until fully combined.
  • Use a rubber spatula to fold in the mini chocolate chips and mini Reese's Pieces.
    ¼ cup mini Reese's Pieces, ¼ cup mini chocolate chips
  • Use a medium cookie scoop to portion out the dough and roll into balls. Place the balls on a parchment lined cookie sheet and chill for 15 minutes.
  • Melt the melting wafers in a wide-mouthed glass at 30-second intervals, stirring between each one until smooth. Use a spoon and fork to dip and coat the balls and chocolate. Remove from the chocolate and tap off any excess and place back on the baking sheet to set.
    10 ounces chocolate melting wafers

Notes

  • These truffles are good for 4 to 5 days when stored in an airtight container in the refrigerator or 1 to 2 days at room temperature.
  • Freeze in an airtight container for up to 3 months. Remove and let thaw at room temperature for an hour before enjoying for best texture.
  • Another easy method for heat-treating the flour is spreading the flour out on a rimmed baking sheet and baking at 350 degrees F for 5 to 6 minutes
