Instructions
In a small bowl combine peanut butter, melted butter, and confectioners swerve. Pour 1 tbsp of peanut butter into each sphere mold*. You will need 24 balls of peanut butter. Let freeze for at least 1 hour.
Make your dough in a large mixing bowl. Combine water, instant yeast, and honey, whisk well. Let sit for 5 minutes. Add in your eggs, bread mix, and softened butter. Mix on medium speed with a paddle attachment for 5 minutes or with your hands for 10-15 minutes. Smooth into a ball and cover for 1 hour.
Preheat oven to 375*. Once dough has risen, divide the dough into 24 equal sections. Flatten each section into a flat circle. Place one frozen ball of peanut butter and about 15 chocolate chips into the center of each piece of dough. Wrap the dough around the peanut butter and chocolate and pinch the seams closed. Place each stuffed dough ball, seam side down, on a baking sheet lined with parchment paper. Bake for 10-15 minutes. Sprinkle with confectioners swerve and serve warm!
Notes
*If you don't have a silicone mold you can also use mini cupcake liners. If nothing else, freeze the peanut butter on a baking sheet lined with parchment paper and cut the peanut butter to size after its frozen.
