Step 3: Form the Balls
- Scoop about 1 tablespoon of the mixture and roll it between your palms to form a smooth ball.
- Place each ball on a parchment-lined baking tray.
- Repeat until all the mixture is used — you should get around 12–15 balls, depending on size.
Step 4: Optional Chocolate Coating
- Melt the dark chocolate chips in a microwave-safe bowl in 30-second intervals, stirring each time until smooth.
- Using a fork or skewer, dip each peanut butter ball into the melted chocolate, allowing excess chocolate to drip off.
- Place the coated balls back on the parchment paper.
Tip: You can also drizzle chocolate instead of coating for a lighter touch.
Step 5: Chill to Set
- Refrigerate the balls for at least 30 minutes until firm.
- Once set, they’re ready to enjoy!
Storage Tip: Keep them in an airtight container in the fridge for up to a week or freeze for up to a month.
