I used to make these to include in my Christmas goodie packages. These are SO GOOD! Who doesn't like chocolate and peanut butter?!?! I hope you enjoy! Note: 2 hours of the prep time includes chilling time.

How To Make peanut butter balls

Step 1

Mix first 6 ingredients. Roll into 3/4 inch balls and refrigerate for 2 hours.

Step 2

When balls have been chilled: Melt chocolate and shortening in a saucepan. Use a toothpick to dip them into the chocolate. Let excess drip off. Place on wax paper. Refrigerate 10-15 minutes, until chocolate has hardened. Remove from wax paper and store in an airtight container in the refrigerator. They will keep this way for up to 2 weeks.
