These are my family's favourite holiday treat. Where we live the kids call them Moose Droppings , but don't let that keep you from trying them...they are decadent! Cook time is the time it takes to dip them in the chocolate. Ingredients:
1 1/2 cups smooth peanut butter |
1/4 cup butter |
2 cups powdered sugar |
1 teaspoon vanilla |
2 -3 cups dipping chocolate, wafers melted in a double boiler (available at most bulk food stores) |
Directions:
1. Mix the first four ingredients together well.
2. Shape into 1 inch balls.
3. Dip balls into melted chocolate and place on waxed paper lined cookie sheet to set.
4. *I find the balls easier to dip when they are frozen or at least cold.
5. I make the balls one day, pop them in the freezer and take them out a few at a time to dip- this keeps them from being too soft to dip.
6. *If you can't find dipping wafers, substitute semi-sweet chocolate chips melted with 1/3 grated parowax (yes, parowax is edible!).
