Ingredients:

  • 1 cup creamy peanut butter
  • 1/2 cup unsalted butter, softened
  • 2 cups powdered sugar
  • 1 tsp vanilla extract
  • 12 oz semi-sweet chocolate chips
  • 2 tbsp coconut oil

Instructions:

  1. In a medium bowl, beat the softened butter and peanut butter on medium-high speed until the mixture is pale and fluffy.
  2. Gradually add the powdered sugar and vanilla extract, mixing on low speed until the dough is cohesive and pulls away from the sides of the bowl.
  3. Scoop approximately 2 tablespoons (about 33 g) of dough and roll between your palms to form 18 1.5-inch spheres.
  4. Place the balls on a parchment-lined baking sheet and freeze for 10 to 15 minutes to stabilize the structure.
  5. Combine chocolate chips and coconut oil in a microwave-safe bowl; microwave in 30-second intervals, stirring in between, until the chocolate is smooth and glossy.
  6. Using a fork, dip each chilled ball into the melted chocolate, lifting and tapping the fork to remove excess coating.
  7. Place the dipped balls back on the parchment paper and refrigerate for 15 minutes until the chocolate shell is firm.
