I had some trouble getting the chocolate coating to set, but other than that, these were great.

I've been making these for years and they're always a crowd-pleaser. I like to add a little bit of sea salt to the chocolate coating for a sweet and salty flavor.

This recipe was a huge hit at my party! The peanut butter filling was rich and creamy, and the chocolate coating was the perfect finishing touch. I will definitely be making these again.
