No-Bake Chocolate Peanut Butter Balls
Perfect for Any Occasion
Ingredients:
-
1 cup creamy peanut butter
-
1/4 cup butter (softened)
-
1/2 tsp vanilla extract
-
1 1/2 cups powdered sugar
-
1 1/2 cups semi-sweet chocolate chips
-
1 tbsp coconut oil or shortening (optional, for smoother chocolate)
Instructions:
-
Mix the Filling
-
In a bowl, mix peanut butter, butter, and vanilla until smooth.
-
Gradually stir in powdered sugar until a dough forms. It should be firm enough to roll into balls — if too sticky, add a bit more sugar.
-
-
Roll ‘Em Up
-
Roll mixture into 1-inch balls and place on a parchment-lined tray.
-
Chill in the fridge or freezer for 20–30 minutes until firm.
-
-
Melt the Chocolate
-
In a microwave-safe bowl, melt chocolate chips with coconut oil (if using) in 30-second intervals, stirring until smooth.
-
-
Dip & Set
-
Using a fork or toothpick, dip each peanut butter ball into the melted chocolate, letting excess drip off.
-
Place back on parchment paper and chill until the chocolate sets (fridge: ~15 mins, freezer: ~5).
-
✨ Optional Toppings:
-
Sprinkle with crushed peanuts, sea salt flakes, or festive sprinkles before chocolate sets.
Storage:
-
Store in an airtight container in the fridge for up to 2 weeks or freeze for up to 3 months.
