Ingredients

• 1 cup Creamy peanut butter
• 4 tablespoons Unsalted butter
• 1.5 cups Powdered sugar
• 1 teaspoon Vanilla extract
• 0.25 teaspoon Salt
• 2 cups Semi-sweet chocolate chips
• 1 tablespoon Coconut oil
• 0.5 cup Shredded coconut (optional, for coating)

Directions

Step 1

In a medium-sized mixing bowl, combine the creamy peanut butter, softened unsalted butter, powdered sugar, vanilla extract, and salt. Mix thoroughly until smooth and evenly combined.

Step 2

Using your hands or a small scoop, shape the mixture into 1-inch balls and place them on a baking sheet lined with parchment paper.

Step 3

Place the baking sheet in the freezer for 15 minutes to firm up the peanut butter balls.

Step 4

While the peanut butter balls are chilling, melt the semi-sweet chocolate chips and coconut oil together in a microwave-safe bowl in 20-second intervals, stirring after each interval until smooth.

Step 5

Remove the peanut butter balls from the freezer. Using a fork or skewer, dip each ball into the melted chocolate, ensuring it is completely coated. Allow any excess chocolate to drip off.

Step 6

Optional: Roll or sprinkle the chocolate-coated balls with shredded coconut for a decorative touch.

Step 7

Place the coated snowballs back on the parchment-lined baking sheet and return them to the freezer for 10 minutes or until the chocolate is set.

Step 8

Serve the Chocolate Peanut Butter Snowballs chilled or at room temperature. Store any leftovers in an airtight container in the refrigerator for up to one week.
