Why Our Chocolate Peanut Butter Balls Are the Best

Instructions for [No Bake] Chocolate Peanut Butter Balls Recipe 2023
- Mix butter, peanut butter, and powdered sugar until well blended. More or less powdered sugar can be used to make the mixture more or less dry.
- Make 1-inch balls and freeze for about 20 minutes or until firm.
- Microwave chocolate chips for 60 seconds, stopping every 15 seconds to check and stir. Adding some vegetable shortening can make the chocolate thinner and easier to work with.
- Remove balls from the freezer and dip most of the way into the chocolate, coating all but a small circle on top.
- Using a toothpick for this works well but simply dipping it in and pulling it out with a fork also works. Place completed buckeyes on wax paper and allow them to harden. Refrigerate if needed.
