Categories     Desserts

Yield 6 balls

Number Of Ingredients 4

½ cup melted butter, melted
1 ½ cups peanut butter
2 ½ cups powdered sugar
1 cup chocolate chips, enough for dipping

Steps:

  • Mix butter, peanut butter, and powdered sugar until well blended. More or less powdered sugar can be used to make mixture more or less dry.
  • Make 1 inch balls and freeze for about 20 minutes or until firm.
  • Microwave chocolate chips for 60 seconds, stopping every 15 seconds to check and stir. Adding some vegetable shortening can make the chocolate thinner and easier work with.
  • Remove balls from freezer and dip most of the way into the chocolate, coating all but a small circle on top. Using a toothpick for this works well but simply dipping it in and pulling it out with a fork also works. Place completed buckeyes on wax paper and allow to harden. Refrigerate if needed.
  • Enjoy!

CRISPY CHOCOLATE PEANUT BUTTER PRETZEL BALLS



Crispy Chocolate Peanut Butter Pretzel Balls image

These are absolutely addictive! Sweet and salty with lots of crunch, and very easy to make. These should probably be stored in the fridge to keep from going soft or you could probably coat in an extra layer of chocolate if you wanted to go through the trouble.

Time 10m

Yield 60-70 balls

Number Of Ingredients 4

1 cup peanut butter (smooth or crunchy)
2 cups milk chocolate chips
1 cup pretzel (crushed into little pieces)
3 cups crispy rice cereal (rice crispies)

Steps:

  • In a double boiler or microwave (on 50 % power, in a large bowl) melt the chocolate and peanut butter. If microwaving, start with a minute and then add additional time (30 secs at a time, mixing in between) until melted. Be careful not to burn the chocolate.
  • Mix in the pretzels and rice cereal until everything is coated and well incorporated.
  • Drop by the teaspoonful onto a lined cookie sheet and place in the fridge. Once hardened, you can transfer to a bag or container. These are best stored in the fridge.

PEANUT BUTTER AND CHOCOLATE CHIP RICE KRISPIES BALLS



Peanut Butter and Chocolate Chip Rice Krispies Balls image

I saw this in Oprah Magazine (December 2008) and thought this would be a great addition to those Christmas cookie platters we all have to make. Very quick and easy to do. This only has 5 ingredients. This uses chocolate-covered toffee candy bars (Heath bars) and looks easy enough for my boys to make for their teacher. This also uses a microwave to make things go even quicker.

NO BAKE CHOCOLATE COVERED PEANUT BUTTER BALLS



No Bake Chocolate Covered Peanut Butter Balls image

These are one of my family favorites.

Provided by LINDA BAILEY

Categories     Nuts

Time 30m

Number Of Ingredients 6

(1) 18oz jar(s) of smooth or chunky peanut buter - i prefer smooth
(1) 16oz bag(s) of confectioners sugar
1/4 c butter, melted
chocolate almond bark or
chocolate candy melts or
12 oz semi-sweet chocolate chips

Steps:

  • 1. In a large bowl, stir together the peanut butter, confectioners sugar and melted butter until the mixture is crumbly. For the next step, the best way that I've found to make a smooth filling is to use your hands to mix everything together.
  • 2. Line a baking sheet with foil. Roll the peanut butter filling into 1 inch balls and line the baking sheet with rows of the balls. Set the baking sheet in the freezer for 5-7 minutes to chill the peanut butter balls for easier dipping.
  • 3. While the peanut butter balls are chilling, melt the chocolate in the microwave in a microwave safe bowl that is deep enough for dipping. I melted 6 blocks of chocolate almond bark at a time, stirring at 45 second intervals until smooth.
  • 4. Remove the baking sheet from the freezer. Insert a toothpick or wooden skewer into a peanut butter ball and then dip it into the chocolate, turning quickly to cover the entire candy.
  • 5. Place onto a second baking tray that has also been lined with foil. Swirl the chocolate on the top of each candy for a pretty design. Refrigerate until the chocolate had completely dried. Store the candies in a sealed container in the refrigerator.
