Peanut Butter Snowballs




Source of Recipe


internet


List of Ingredients




1 1/2 cups peanut butter

1/2 cup (1 stick) butter or margarine, softened

1 box (16 ounces) confectioners’ sugar

1 package (12 ounces) white chocolate chips

1 tablespoon vegetable shortening

confectioners’ sugar or edible glitter for dusting


Recipe





Makes about 4 dozen



1. In a large bowl, combine peanut butter and butter until blended; add confectioners’ sugar, 1/2 cup at a time, stirring after each addition.


2. Line a baking sheet with foil. Using your hands, shape peanut butter mixture into 1-inch balls. Place balls on prepared baking sheet; chill until firm, about 1 hour.




3. Place white chocolate and shortening in a large microwave-safe bowl. Microwave on MEDIUM, stirring at 30-second intervals, until chocolate is melted and smooth, about 2 minutes.


4. Line a baking sheet with waxed paper. Using a spoon, dip each peanut butter ball into melted chocolate, spooning chocolate over ball to coat, if necessary.




5. Transfer snowballs to the waxed paper-lined baking sheet. Sprinkle tops with confectioners’ sugar or edible glitter. Chill snowballs until set, about 30 minutes.
