Categories     Candy

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:

  • Use a good quality peanut butter. This is the main ingredient in the peanut butter balls, so it's important to use one that you like the taste of. Look for a peanut butter that is made with 100% peanuts and does not contain any added sugar or salt.
  • Chill the peanut butter before making the balls. This will help them to set up more quickly and will make them easier to handle.
  • Use a small cookie scoop to measure out the peanut butter balls. This will help you to make them all the same size and shape.
  • If the peanut butter balls are too soft, you can roll them in finely chopped nuts or coconut flakes. This will help to firm them up and give them a nice crunchy coating.
  • Store the peanut butter balls in the refrigerator for up to 2 weeks. You can also freeze them for up to 3 months.

Conclusion:

Sugar-free peanut butter balls are a delicious and easy-to-make treat that is perfect for any occasion. They are made with a few simple ingredients and can be customized to your liking.
