🧾 Ingredients

Peanut Butter Filling

• 1 cup creamy peanut butter (no-stir works best)
• ¼ cup softened butter or coconut oil
• 1–1½ cups powdered sugar (or sugar-free substitute)
• 1 tsp vanilla extract

Chocolate Coating

• 2 cups chocolate chips (milk, semisweet, or dark)
• 1 tbsp coconut oil (optional, for smoother dipping)

🍴 Instructions

1. Make the Peanut Butter Dough

In a bowl, mix peanut butter, softened butter, powdered sugar, and vanilla.
Stir until a thick, smooth dough forms.
Add more powdered sugar if needed for firmness.

2. Roll

Scoop 1 tbsp of the mixture and roll into small balls.
Place on a parchment-lined tray.

3. Chill

Freeze for 20–30 minutes, or refrigerate 1 hour.
This helps them hold shape during dipping.

4. Melt the Chocolate

Microwave chocolate chips + coconut oil in 20–30 second intervals, stirring until smooth and silky.

5. Dip Each Ball

Use a fork or dipping tool to coat each peanut butter ball in melted chocolate.
Place back on the tray.

6. Set & Serve

Refrigerate for 20 minutes, or freeze 10 minutes, until fully set.

⭐ Tips for PERFECT PB Balls

• Chill the filling well — it makes dipping easier.
• Use dark chocolate for richer flavor and lower sugar.
• Add a pinch of sea salt on top for a gourmet twist.
• Want them firmer? Add more powdered sugar or extra peanut butter.
• Store in the fridge for 2 weeks or freezer for 3 months.

💚Low-Carb Version

Simply switch to:

• Sugar-free chocolate chips (Lily’s, ChocZero)
• Powdered monk fruit or allulose instead of powdered sugar
• Natural peanut butter with no added sugar

This keeps the flavor decadent while keeping your glucose stable.
