NO BAKE PEANUT BUTTER BALLS

Well, it’s been shared, but only in different holiday forms like Peanut Butter Bunnies and Peanut Butter Pumpkins.
My brain is extremely visual…I have to see things to really understand it. So, I got thinking that maybe some of you are like that. Sure I could say use this recipe to make peanut butter balls, but if you are staring at bunnies and pumpkins, it could be difficult to see past the holiday form.
So, when I made a batch of these Peanut Butter Balls for my kiddos this Christmas, I had to add some New Year’s pizzaz to a few of them. Ok, ok, I took over half the batch.
I always said I would never serve another holiday dessert at the current holiday…but I half failed that promise. I say half because really the chocolate ones were for my family, and the other half were for New Years. I couldn’t resist dipping half of them in white chocolate and adding the fun white and gold sprinkles that I had found at Walmart.

Instructions
Beat the butter, peanut butter, and marshmallow cream until creamy. Add the vanilla and salt and beat again.
Slowly add the powdered sugar until a soft dough forms.
Roll the dough into 36 even balls. Refrigerate for at least 30 minutes. Longer is better.
Melt the chocolate melts according to the package directions.
Remove a few peanut butter balls at a time from the refrigerator. Use a toothpick and spoon to dip the balls in the melted chocolate.
Place the balls on a parchment paper lined tray and twist the toothpick out. Dab a little bit of chocolate over the hole and top with sprinkles. Let set.
Store in a loosely sealed container on the counter for 1-2 days, or in the refrigerator for longer. Makes 36 peanut butter balls.
