Description

Delicious and easy-to-make Peanut Butter Balls, also known as Buckeyes, combining creamy peanut butter with butter and powdered sugar, then dipped in rich melted chocolate. These no-bake treats are perfect for parties, holidays, or anytime you want a sweet snack with a classic peanut butter and chocolate flavor.

Ingredients

Scale
  • 1 cup butter (2 sticks)
  • 1 cup creamy peanut butter
  • 4 cups powdered sugar
  • 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
  • 6 ounces semi-sweet melting chocolate, melting wafers, or chocolate almond bark

Instructions

  1. Use electric beaters to cream together the butter and peanut butter until smooth and well combined.
  2. Slowly add the powdered sugar to the peanut butter mixture while continuing to beat, creating a smooth, thick consistency. Then, add the vanilla extract and mix thoroughly.
  3. Scoop about 5 dozen small portions of the peanut butter mixture onto a baking sheet lined with parchment paper. Place the sheet in the freezer for about 30 minutes to firm up the mounds, making them easier to handle.
  4. While the peanut butter mounds chill, melt the semi-sweet chocolate, melting wafers, or chocolate almond bark according to the package instructions, ensuring it’s smooth and ready for dipping.
  5. Using a toothpick, dip each chilled peanut butter ball into the melted chocolate, coating it evenly. Allow any excess chocolate to drip off before placing the coated ball back onto a parchment-lined baking sheet.
  6. Let the chocolate-coated peanut butter balls set at room temperature or in the refrigerator until the chocolate hardens and the Buckeyes are firm.
  7. Store the peanut butter balls in an airtight container in the refrigerator or freezer to maintain freshness and texture until ready to serve.
