Ingredients
- 1 cup Creamy peanut butter
- 1 cup Powdered sugar
- 4 tablespoons Unsalted butter
- 1 teaspoon Vanilla extract
- 1.5 cups Semi-sweet chocolate chips
- 1 teaspoon Coconut oil
- 0.25 cup White chocolate chips
Directions
Step 1
In a mixing bowl, combine the peanut butter, powdered sugar, melted butter, and vanilla extract. Stir until the mixture is smooth and forms a thick dough-like consistency.
Step 2
Roll the peanut butter mixture into small oval-shaped balls, about 1 to 1.5 inches long, to resemble the shape of footballs. Place them on a parchment-lined baking sheet.
Step 3
Freeze the peanut butter footballs for 15-20 minutes, or until firm.
Step 4
While the footballs are chilling, melt the semi-sweet chocolate chips and coconut oil together in a microwave-safe bowl. Heat in 30-second intervals, stirring after each interval, until the mixture is smooth and fully melted.
Step 5
Using a fork, dip each chilled peanut butter football into the melted chocolate, ensuring it is fully coated. Place the coated footballs back onto the parchment-lined baking sheet.
Step 6
Melt the white chocolate chips in a microwave-safe bowl in 20-second intervals, stirring after each interval until melted and smooth.
Step 7
Transfer the melted white chocolate to a small piping bag or a resealable plastic bag with the tip cut off. Pipe laces onto the chocolate-coated footballs to complete the design.
Step 8
Allow the Chocolatey Football Bites to set at room temperature or in the refrigerator until the chocolate hardens completely.
Step 9
Serve and enjoy! Store any leftovers in an airtight container in the refrigerator for up to a week.
