Ingredients
Scale
- 1 cup creamy peanut butter
- 1 cup softened butter
- 1 cup powdered sugar, sifted
- 1 tsp vanilla extract
- 1Β½ cups semi-sweet chocolate chips
Instructions
- Prep: Gather ingredients, line baking sheet with parchment paper and ensure butter is softened
- Mix: Combine peanut butter, butter, vanilla, and powdered sugar until smooth, mixing thoroughly
- Shape: Roll mixture into 1-inch balls, place on prepared sheet, keeping hands slightly damp
- Chill: Refrigerate balls for 30 minutes until firm, which is essential for coating
- Coat: Melt chocolate, dip each ball, return to sheet, working quickly
- Set: Refrigerate until chocolate hardens completely and ready to serve
Notes
- Slightly dampen hands when rolling balls to prevent mixture from sticking to your hands.
- Use toothpicks for easier dipping and cleaner chocolate coating finish.
- Work in batches when coating to prevent chocolate from cooling too much during the process.
- Store in refrigerator for up to 1 week in an airtight container for best freshness.
