Chocolate Covered Peanut Butter Balls 1-18 oz. jar of smooth or chunky peanut butter - I prefer smooth 1 - 16 oz. bag of confectioners sugar 1/4 c. butter, melted chocolate almond bark or chocolate candy melts or 12 oz. semi-sweet chocolate chips & 2 tsp. shortening In a large bowl, stir together the peanut butter, confectioners sugar and melted butter until the mixture is crumbly. For the next step, the best way that Ive found to make a smooth filling is to use your hands to mix everything together. Line a baking sheet with foil. Roll the peanut butter filling into 1 inch balls and line the baking sheet with rows of the balls. Set the baking sheet in the freezer for 5-7 minutes to chill the peanut butter balls for easier dipping. While the peanut butter balls are chilling, melt the chocolate in the microwave in a microwave safe bowl that is deep enough for dipping. I melted 6 blocks of chocolate almond bark at a time, stirring at 45 second intervals until smooth. Remove the baking sheet from the freezer. Insert a toothpick or wooden skewer into a peanut butter ball and then dip it into the chocolate, turning quickly to cover the entire candy. Place onto a second baking tray that has also been lined with foil. Swirl the chocolate on the top of each candy for a pretty design. Refrigerate until the chocolate had completely dried. Store the candies in a sealed container in the refrigerator. **Warning** These little candies are very addictive!!
