White chocolate and Milk Chocolate covered truffles drizzled with peanut butter.

3-Ingredient Filling

A creamy cream cheese filling makes these Nutter Butter Truffles hard to resist. The filling is a combination of just 3 ingredients- crushed Nutter Butter Cookies, cream cheese, and powdered sugar. The cookie crumbs get soft, making a creamy, not crunchy filling with just the righ amount of peanut butter flavor.

Tips for Making Nutter Butter Truffles:

  • I like to use a combination of milk or semi-sweet chocolate and white chocolate, but you could use all one or the other.
  • Use a regular size package of Nutter Butter Cookies. I haven’t included the pacakage weight (size) because they change that so frequently. It won’t make but a slight difference if you use a few more or a few less coookies. If the mixture is too dry to shape into balls, add a little peanut butter. If it is too wet, you can add more powdered sugar.
White Chocolate and Milk Chocolate covered Truffles
  • Likewise, the size of the balls isn’t really important. I make them maybe slightly larger than an inch across, but you can make them smaller or larger.
  • If you don’t have chocolate candy coating, you can use melted chocolate chips for the coating. The candy coating is much easier to work with though.

Storage

Nutter Butter Truffles can be refrigerated for a week or frozen for several months which makes them a great make ahead treat for special occasions and the holidays.
