Servings: 24 buckeyes
Calories: 220kcal
Ingredients
- ¾ cup sunflower butter
- ½ cup dairy free margarine, softened such as Earth Balance
- ¼ teaspoon vanilla extract
- 2 - ½ cups powdered sugar
For Dipping Chocolate:
- 1-½ cups dairy free semi sweet chocolate chips such as Enjoy Life
- 1-½ tablespoons coconut oil or dairy free margarine
Instructions
- In a large mixing bowl, combine the sunflower butter, margarine, vanilla extract and powdered sugar (the dough will be dry). Using a small cookie scoop or tablespoon, scoop dough and roll into 1-inch balls (about 1 tablespoon of dough each).
- Place the balls onto a small cookie sheet or pan lined with wax paper and chill in the freezer for about an hour until firm.
- Pour the chocolate chips and coconut oil into a small bowl. Microwave the mixture for 30 seconds, stir well to distribute the heat, then return to the microwave for another 30 seconds, stir again. If the mixture is not smooth after stirring for a minute, return to the microwave for another 30 seconds and stir again. The mixture should be smooth.
- Remove the sunflower butter balls from the freezer. Insert a toothpick into the center and dip into the chocolate leaving the top uncovered (to look like a buckeye). Return to the freezer until ready to serve.
