CHOCOLATE PEANUT BUTTER BALLS

These Chocolate Peanut Butter Balls are certainly an old favorite and much better than anything you will find in the candy aisle.

Are there ever enough Chocolate Peanut Butter Balls to go around? I don’t think so. Chocolate and peanut butter is a combination that’s hard to beat, don’t you think? These easy treats are perfect for parties or as a surprise for any chocolate and peanut butter lover. Watch them disappear!

INGREDIENTS:

• 1/2 cup creamy peanut butter (substitute other nut butters, if needed)
• 3 tablespoons salted butter, softened
• 1 cup+ powdered sugar
• 8 ounces semi-sweet chocolate, chopped (or chocolate chips)

DIRECTIONS:

1. Mix peanut butter and butter together in a mixing bowl. Gradually stir in powdered sugar until combined well into a dough ball. If needed, add more powdered sugar a little at a time until mixture holds together in a large ball. Cover and let peanut butter dough sit for about 15 minutes to firm up, or cover tightly with plastic wrap and refrigerate until ready to form balls.
2. Shape into 1-inch balls, place on a baking sheet, cover and refrigerate for at least 20 minutes to allow to firm up. Dough balls should hold shape before dipping in chocolate. Add more refrigeration time if necessary.
