Peanut Butter Truffles

Start off with putting thepeanut butter, powdered sugar, and butter into a bowl. You can try to mix this with a spoon or fork but I got my hands really really messy and stuck them right in. I find it works best. It’s going to be very messy and you may need to add more powdered sugar. You’re basically trying to get a “dough” that doesn’t stick to your hands directly, like the peanut butter alone would.

Once the mixture is blended well, wash your hands. That way the balls won’t stick to your hands when you are rolling them. Take a melon baller or a small scoop to get the right amount of filling that you need. Continue until all the filling is used and rolled.

Stick them in the freezer for 30 minutes. They will harden up nicely.

Melt your chocolate, either in a double boiler or in the microwave. Take your peanut butter balls out of the freezer and cover each one in chocolate. Make sure to shake off the extra chocolate by tapping your fork on the side of the bowl a few times.

These seemed to stick to my fork more than traditional cake balls do so I ended up taking another fork and scooting them off with it. Decorate however you wish!
