Place the sugar-free dark chocolate chips into a heatproof bowl.
In a small saucepan over low heat, combine the heavy cream, natural peanut butter, and powdered erythritol. Stir continuously until the mixture is smooth and well-integrated, about 2-3 minutes.
Remove the saucepan from heat and stir in the vanilla extract.
Pour the heated peanut butter mixture over the chocolate chips in the bowl. Let it sit for 1-2 minutes, allowing the heat to melt the chocolate.
Using a spatula, mix the chocolate and peanut butter mixture until smooth and glossy.
Cover the bowl with plastic wrap or a lid and refrigerate for 1-2 hours, or until the mixture is firm enough to roll into balls.
Using a spoon, scoop out small portions of the mixture (about a tablespoon each) and roll them into bite-sized truffle balls using your hands.
Place the cocoa powder in a shallow dish, and gently roll each truffle in the cocoa to coat its surface fully.
Arrange the truffles on a parchment-lined tray or plate and refrigerate for another 15-20 minutes to firm up.
Serve chilled or at room temperature. Store any leftovers in an airtight container in the refrigerator for up to one week.
