Ingredients:

  • 1 1/2 lbs powdered sugar
  • 3 tsp vanilla
  • 1/2 lb butter (2 sticks) or 1/2 lb margarine, softened but not melted (2 sticks)
  • 1 (16 oz) jar creamy peanut butter (small jar)
  • 1 lb chocolate bark (comes in big rectangular bricks and its for dipping things into)

Directions:

  1. Cook time is freeze time.
  2. Mix first 4 ingredients together in big bowl. (use your stand mixer if you have one to make the work easier).
  3. Wash hands and roll mixed dough into quarter or smaller size balls (we prefer them smaller than bigger - they are more pop-able that way!). This recipe will make 5-6 dozen nickel size ones.
  4. Method #1 -.
  5. Place the balls on a big cookie sheet covered with wax paper. Stick a toothpick into each one. Set in freezer to firm up. After they are thoroughly chilled and working with 10 or so out of the freezer at a time, take a toothpick and dip into the chilled balls halfway into melted chocolate OR -.
  6. Method #2 -.
  7. Don't put toothpicks in, chill the balls in the freezer and let them harden up. With a small spoon, dip some melted chocolate bark over each ball trying to cover the end and maybe half way down. Let them harden up and then -.
  8. Either method you choose, store in an air tight container IN THE FREEZER. Trust me - they are best this way.
