1/2poundof Candy Coating or Semi-Sweet Chocolate Chips
Instructions
Melt the butter slightly and add it to a mixing bowl. Add the peanut butter and using the spatula or the spoon mix well. You want all the butter and peanut butter mixed together.
Add the powdered sugar. Mix to combine well. I find it’s easier to start with a spoon mixing and then finish mixing with a spatula to really get it all incorporated well.
Roll into 1 inch balls. You should get about 30 balls or so. Place the peanut butter balls onto a lined cookie sheet.
Let sit for about 30 minutes while you prepare the chocolate coating.
Cut the chocolate candy coating into small pieces and heat over medium heat until melted. Be sure to stir constantly so it doesn’t burn. Use chocolate chips for dark chocolate coating.
Using a fork dip the peanut butter balls into the chocolate to coat them on all side. Place them on the lined cookie sheet until the chocolate has hardened.
Store them in an airtight container in the refrigerator up to two weeks. They can be frozen for longer storage.
