These creamy peanut butter balls coated in chocolate are the ultimate holiday candy. They are quick and easy to make, taste delicious, and are everyone’s favorite no-bake treat.
In a large bowl, beat the peanut butter and butter on medium speed until smooth.
Add the vanilla and confectioners' sugar. Beat on low speed until sugar is moistened then beat on medium speed until combined. The dough will look thick like cookie dough and shouldn't be sticky.
Scoop the mixture with a 1.5 tablespoon cookie scoop and roll into balls. Place the balls on a cookie sheet lined with parchment or wax paper. Chill in the freezer until firm, about 30 minutes.
Add chocolate melting wafers to a heatproof bowl. Set the bowl over a pot filled with 1-inch of barely simmering water. Heat stirring constantly until the chocolate is melted and smooth. Remove from heat. Dip each peanut butter ball into the melted chocolate and return to the baking sheet.
