Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 1 cup Creamy peanut butter
- 1 cup Powdered sugar
- 1 cup Crushed salted peanuts
- 1 cup Peanut butter chips
- 1 cup Semi-sweet chocolate chips
- 2 tablespoons Unsalted butter
- 1 teaspoon Vanilla extract
- 0.25 teaspoon Sea salt (optional, for topping)
Instructions
Line a large baking sheet with parchment paper or silicone baking mat and set aside.
In a large mixing bowl, combine the creamy peanut butter, powdered sugar, and crushed salted peanuts. Mix thoroughly until the mixture forms a firm, dough-like consistency.
Using a tablespoon or cookie scoop, portion out small balls from the peanut butter mixture. Roll these into smooth balls between the palms of your hands and place on the prepared baking sheet.
Place the baking sheet in the refrigerator for 15–20 minutes to firm up the peanut butter balls.
While the peanut butter balls are chilling, melt the peanut butter chips, semi-sweet chocolate chips, and unsalted butter in a microwave-safe bowl in short 20-second intervals. Stir well between each interval to prevent burning, until the mixture is smooth and fully melted.
Remove the peanut butter balls from the refrigerator. Using a fork or dipping tool, dip each ball into the melted chocolate mixture, ensuring it is completely coated. Shake off any excess chocolate.
Place the coated candies back onto the parchment-lined baking sheet. If desired, sprinkle the top of each candy with a tiny pinch of sea salt for extra flavor.
Once all the candies are coated, refrigerate the baking sheet for at least 30 minutes, or until the chocolate shell is fully set.
Serve and enjoy your 'Allergic to My Ex Double Peanut Candies'! Store leftovers in an airtight container in the refrigerator for up to 2 weeks.
