Homemade Spring Peanut Butter M&M’s® Truffles – they sound so fancy don’t they?! They taste fancy too. But I will let you in on a little secret, they are easy to make. So easy that you really can’t mess them up. That my friends makes them the perfect last-minute dessert or gift treat.

Since each batch makes about three dozen, you can easily whip up goodies for everyone on your bunny’s special list. That is if you can manage to refrain from eating too much of the peanut butter mixture before making the truffles. Yum!

Use a Fiskars scallop punch to cut the scalloped edge of the tag. If you do not have a punch available, you can easily cut square tags from the printable.

No-Bake Easter Peanut Butter M&M’s® Truffles

Ingredients

• 1 cup peanut butter
• 2 cups powdered sugar
• 1/3 cup butter (melted)
• 1/2 cup M&M’s® Pastel Chocolate Candies
• Candy melts in spring colors

Directions

Combine peanut butter, butter and powdered sugar in a medium bowl. Fold in M&M’s® Pastel Chocolate Candies.

Form one-inch balls of the peanut butter mixture and place on silicone mat or parchment paper lined cookie sheet.

Tip – if the peanut butter is too sticky to form nice balls, just make little sticky blobs. Put the cookie sheet in the freezer for about 10 minutes, and then you will be able to easily roll the blobs into nice balls. 

Place in freezer for 20 minutes or until firm.

Melt candy melts according to package directions. To create pastel colors combine bring colors with white candy melts at a 1:1 ratio.

Dip each peanut butter ball in to melted candy melts and return to silicone mat or lined cookie sheet. Place an M&M’s® in a coordinating color on top of the truffle. 

Tip – if the peanut butter balls get too soft, return them to the freezer half in between dipping in candy melts.

Cool truffles in refrigerator until set. Store in refrigerator.

Place 3-5 Easter Peanut Butter M&Ms® Truffles in a clear plastic treat bag, attach tag and gift.
