Here is my second try on the peanut butter balls. I tried to make them look alot better this time. I found a way, and they look great.
Here is a closer view so you can see how great they look.

Here is my second try on the peanut butter balls. I tried to make them look alot better this time. I found a way, and they look great.
Here is a closer view so you can see how great they look.
Here's the recipe.
Code:
1 ½ cups peanut butter, Skippy or equivalent, not natural peanut butter
3/4 to 1 full box powdered sugar
½ cup butter. softened
1 tsp. vanilla
Mix peanut butter, butter and vanilla with an electric mixer until well blended.
Add the powdered sugar, a little at a time, blending with the mixer until all the sugar is mixed in. The dough will be slightly crumbly.
Form the dough into 1 - 1 1/2 inch size balls by rolling the dough between your hands. Set formed balls on a plate or cookie tray.
In a double boiler add:
12 oz. bag of milk chocolate chips, Guitard is my favorite for its flavor
2 Tbs. shortening
Heat the double boiler to the lowest boil you can achieve.
When the chips are melted, dip one peanut butter ball into the chocolate with tooth picks. Roll the ball in the chocolate until it is well covered.
Remove the peanut butter ball with tooth picks to cookie sheets lined with waxed paper.
