Steps:
- In a large bowl, combine peanut butter, butter, vanilla and salt with an electric mixer until smooth.
- Gradually add the powdered sugar, mixing with an electric mixer until combined. It might be crumbly, but when you press it together it will form a smooth ball. If it is too sticky, add a little more sugar. If it is too dry, add a bit more peanut butter or butter.
- Roll into 1 inch balls (squeeze it first in your hands so it comes together) -- I get about 30 from this recipe. Refrigerate for 1 hour, or pop in the freezer for 15 minutes until chilled.
- Make a double boiler to melt your chocolate: place 1" of water in a small pot and bring it to a simmer over medium high heat.
- Find a glass bowl that fits over the top of the pot and sits on the top edges, but will not touch the water. Add the chocolate and oil to the bowl and place it over the simmering water. Stir often until melted and smooth.
- Use a toothpick to skewer each peanut butter ball, then dunk in chocolate. Allow the excess to drip off and then place on a parchment lined baking sheet to set.
- You can allow them to set at room temperature, or pop into the refrigerator to serve quickly.
- I prefer to store these in the fridge so the chocolate doesn't get soft, but they will last a day or two at room temperature.
