PEANUT BUTTER BALLS

Peanut butter and chocolate are a perfect pairing--and these sweet and salty peanut butter balls covered in bittersweet chocolate are sure to satisfy your craving. Make sure the balls are chilled and firm before rolling them in the chocolate. It will ensure that they do not fall apart and helps the chocolate set faster. If the chocolate thickens while you are dipping the balls, just pop it back in the microwave for 20 seconds and stir until smooth.

Time 1h25m

Yield 24 balls

Number Of Ingredients 6

1 cup confectioners' sugar
1/2 cup creamy peanut butter (see Cook's Note)
4 tablespoons unsalted butter, at room temperature
1 teaspoon pure vanilla extract
1/4 teaspoon kosher salt
6 ounces bittersweet chocolate, roughly chopped

Steps:

  • Beat the confectioners' sugar, peanut butter, 2 tablespoons of the butter, vanilla extract and salt in a large bowl with an electric mixer until combined and smooth. Roll the mixture into 24 equal-sized balls (about 1 teaspoon each) and place them on a small baking sheet or tray. Chill in the freezer until firm, about 15 minutes.
  • Meanwhile, heat the chocolate and the remaining 2 tablespoons butter in a small microwave-safe bowl in 20 second intervals, stirring between each with a rubber spatula, until melted and smooth.
  • Holding with two forks, dip each peanut butter ball into the melted chocolate to evenly coat. Tap off excess chocolate. Place the balls back on the baking sheet. Chill in the refrigerator until the chocolate is firm and set, about 1 hour. Serve chilled. Refrigerate extra balls in an airtight container.

Time 1h

Yield 15 pieces

Number Of Ingredients 4

1 1/2 cups sifted powdered sugar
1/2 cup creamy peanut butter
3 tablespoons butter or 3 tablespoons margarine, softened
1 lb dipping chocolate or 1 lb confectioner's coating

Steps:

  • Stir together powdered sugar, peanut butter and butter until well mixed.
  • Shape peanut butter mixture into 1 inch balls, placing them on a baking sheet covered with waxed paper.
  • Let balls stand for 20 minutes until dry.
  • Melt the dipping chocolate or confectioners' coating.
  • Drop balls one at a time in melted chocolate.
  • Using a fork, remove from the chocolate, letting excess chocolate drip off.
  • Place back on the waxed paper.
  • Let stand until dry.
  • Store tightly covered in a cool dry place.

Tips:

  • To make the peanut butter balls easier to roll, chill the dough for at least 30 minutes before shaping.
  • If the dough is too sticky, add more powdered sugar until it is firm enough to handle.
  • If the dough is too dry, add a little bit of milk or water until it is moist enough to hold together.
  • Be careful not to over-mix the dough, as this can make the peanut butter balls tough.
  • For a fun and festive touch, decorate the peanut butter balls with sprinkles, chopped nuts, or melted chocolate.
