Peanut Butter Balls

Peanut Butter BallsI needed 10 dozen cookies for a library cookie sale and ended up using an old recipe for chocolate covered peanut butter balls! Easy enough for kids to help (make the balls) and really good!

Total Time: 2 hours including freezer time

Yield: 13 dozen

Ingredients:

Steps:

  1. Cream butter in large mixing bowl. Gradually add powdered sugar, beating well. Stir in peanut butter and water.
  2. Shape mixture into 1/2" balls onto a piece of parchment (or baking sheet) and put in freezer for a few minutes. This is not in the recipe I had in my recipe box but it makes handling them much easier once you have hot chocolate!

  4. Place chocolate in a metal bowl inside a larger pot that has some water on the bottom (or double boiler IF you have one...I did not) and melt the chocolate chips. I always add a few teaspoons of oil to the chips to make them thinner and easier to dip the balls in. Stir while chocolate melts entirely.

  6. Drop half dozen of the balls into the melted chocolate. Use a fork to move them around then quickly pick them out one at a time (letting excess chocolate drip off). Put in individual paper candy cups for a cute presentation. Sprinkle with candy decorations for a finishing touch.

  8. Nice for cookie swaps, cookie sales or open houses. Very nice to share as gifts for the holidays!
