PEANUT BUTTER BALLS

I was in the mood to bake today in this ridiculous fall-in-august weather we are having, but as soon as I got ready to turn on my oven, the sun came out and I just couldn’t do it.

So, I decided to whip up some peanut butter balls instead!  Easy, quick & no oven involved…  perfect for a summer day!

Ingredients

• 3/4 cup peanut butter
• 1/4 cup butter, softened
• 1/2 teaspoon pure vanilla extract
• 2 cups powdered sugar
• 1 cup chocolate chips
• 2 tablespoons vegetable oil

Directions

• In a large bowl, whisk together the peanut butter, butter & vanilla until smooth. Dump in the powdered sugar and stir until too stiff to stir with a fork... then comes the fun part.
• Dig in with your (clean!) hands and stir & knead until a smooth stiff dough forms. Roll into small (teaspoon-full size) balls and place on a parchment-lined baking sheet.
• Once you are done rolling all the dough, place the sheet in the fridge to chill and set for a few hours, until very firm.
