Ingredients

Servings 3

2 1/2 cups sifted confectioners' sugar
1 cup smooth peanut butter
5 tablespoons unsalted butter, melted
1/2 teaspoon vanilla extract
1/4 teaspoon kosher salt
12 ounces semisweet or bittersweet chocolate, chopped
1 1/2 teaspoons shortening

Instructions

Beat the confectioners' sugar, peanut butter, melted butter, vanilla and salt with an electric mixer until well combined. Form into 1-inch balls and place on a parchment-lined baking sheet. Freeze until firm, about 20 minutes.
Put the chopped chocolate and shortening in a medium, microwave-safe bowl. Microwave for 2 minutes, stirring every 30 seconds until the mixture is completely melted and smooth.
Stick a toothpick or skewer into the top center of each peanut butter ball. Dip the balls into the melted chocolate, leaving a circle of peanut butter still visible. Allow the excess chocolate to drip off and place on a parchment-lined baking sheet.
Freeze the buckeyes until firm, about 30 minutes. Smooth out the hole left by the toothpick with an offset spatula. Serve at room temperature or well chilled.

Why this Buckeyes works for PCOS

Lunch is where most PCOS meal plans either succeed or collapse. A meal like this Buckeyes that combines adequate protein, fibre-rich carbs, and fat keeps blood sugar stable for the rest of the workday and reduces the late-afternoon energy crash that drives sugar cravings around 3-4pm.
