Quick and easy Peanut Butter Balls are better than Reese's and dunked in a sweet, dark chocolate shell. The ultimate homemade food gift for the holidays.
In a large mixing bowl, beat the sugar, peanut butter, butter and vanilla together until well combined. If the mixture seems too dry, add 1 tablespoon milk and beat until the mixture comes together.
Shape the peanut butter mixture into 1 tablespoon sized balls by rolling in your hands and arrange on a baking sheet lined with parchment paper.
Transfer the baking sheet to the freezer and freeze for 15-20 minutes.
Melt the chocolate in a microwave safe bowl in 30 second increments stir in between each, until smooth.
Dip the peanut butter balls in the chocolate to coat and return to the baking sheet.
Allow the balls to sit at room temperature until set.
Melt the white chocolate in a microwave safe bowl in 30 second increments stirring in between each until smooth.
Transfer the white chocolate to a piping bag and drizzle over the peanut butter balls.
Allow the chocolate to set and then transfer to an airtight container.
Store at room temperate until ready to serve.
