Serves 8
Ingredients
Scale:
1x
- 2 cup Peanut butter (creamy)
- ½ cup Butter (softened)
- ¾ teaspoon Vanilla extract
- 4 cup Dipping chocolate
Instructions
- Cream butter until very light yellow.
- Add peanut butter and vanilla and mix well.

- Melt chocolate. If you cannot find dipping chocolate, use semi-sweet chocolate chips.
- Dip balls and place back onto wax paper that has been LIGHTLY sprayed with Pam. Remove toothpicks.
