PEANUT BUTTER DATE BALLS

These things are great! The dates add natural sweetener - no sugar added! They come from the Biggest Loser Cookbook and are probably the best recipe in there! Note: These taste great with natural peanut butter, which avoids having sugar added because of the sugar added to regular peanut butter.

PEANUT BUTTER DATE BALLS

My mom always had these cookies on our Xmas cookie trays. It is an absolute must every year! Everyone loves these! (I believe that Mom cut this recipe from a magazine but I don't know its origin.) The preparation time includes chilling time in the fridge.

Time 2h25m

Yield 4 dozen, 12 serving(s)

Number Of Ingredients 7

1 cup peanut butter
1 cup icing sugar
2 tablespoons butter
1 cup dates, chopped
1 cup peanuts, chopped fine (unsalted)
2 tablespoons butter
8 ounces semi-sweet chocolate chips

Steps:

  • Soften the peanut butter by microwaving for about one minute on Power Level 3.
  • In a medium bowl, cream peanut butter and butter.
  • Stir in icing sugar, dates and peanuts and mix well.
  • Roll the peanut butter mixture into 1" balls or whatever size you like, if dough is sticky, refrigerate for 30 minutes or so before rolling.
  • Place on waxed paper lined baking trays and refrigerate until firm, about 1 hour.
  • Place butter and chocolate chips in microwave safe bowl and melt the chocolate at 30 second intervals until smooth (I usually do this at Power Level 6 so that it doesn't overcook).
  • Dip the balls into the chocolate and place back onto the wax paper lined trays and pop into the fridge again for an hour or so.
  • These freeze beautifully - I place balls into tupperware and put wax paper between the layers.

Tips:

  • Use a food processor to save time and energy. Simply add all of the ingredients to the food processor and pulse until well combined.
  • If you don't have a food processor, you can also use a blender. Just be sure to blend the ingredients until they are very smooth.
  • Feel free to get creative with your add-ins. You can add chopped nuts, seeds, dried fruit, or even chocolate chips to your peanut butter date balls.
  • Roll the peanut butter date balls in your favorite coating. You can use chopped nuts, seeds, coconut flakes, or even cocoa powder.
  • Store the peanut butter date balls in the refrigerator for up to 2 weeks. You can also freeze them for up to 3 months.
