How to Make Keto Ice Cream Truffles

  • Blend. Add the heavy cream, natural peanut butter, granulated Stevia, vanilla extract, and a pinch of xanthan gum to a blender and blend until smooth.
  • Freeze. Pour the mixture into an airtight container and freeze until solid.
  • Prepare the baking sheet. For easier cleanup and to avoid sticking, line a baking sheet with parchment paper.
  • Prepare ice cream balls. Scoop the ice cream into balls and arrange them evenly on the prepared baking sheet.
  • Freeze. Return the ice cream balls to the freezer for a minimum of 60 minutes.
  • Dip. Dip each ice cream ball, one at a time, into the homemade chocolate glaze mixture (see below).
  • Drip. Remove each ice cream ball from the dip with a fork, allowing any excess chocolate to drip back into the bowl.
  • Freeze. Freeze for a final 30 minutes before serving.

How to Make a Keto Chocolate Glaze

Here’s how to make the homemade chocolate glaze to dip your ice cream truffles in. It’s easy to make, tastes absolutely delightful and best of all, it’s 100% keto-friendly.

  • Melt the chocolate. The better the quality of the chocolate you use, the better the chocolate glaze turns out. For this one, we’ll be using sugar free dark chocolate and coconut oil heated together either in the microwave or over the top of a double boiler.
  • Stir. Stir the melted mixture until well combined.
  • Dip. Dip each of the ice cream balls, one at a time, into the glaze.

2 Quick Tips for Coating the Ice Cream Truffles

Make sure that you’re properly coating your ice cream truffles with these 2 easy to remember tips:

  • No mess, no fuss. Avoid making a mess by simply taking your time and letting the excess chocolate drip off each of the truffles when you pull them out of the glaze. This also helps to make sure your truffles have a nice and even coating.
  • Plug the holes. Using a fork to remove the truffles from the bowl will leave them with a few holes; you can simply dip your finger in the chocolate glaze afterwards and spread a bit over each of the holes.
