With minimal ingredients and prep time, these delightful peanut butter balls are perfect for any occasion, from parties to casual snacking.


Ingredients

8 oz cream cheese, softened

1 cup creamy peanut butter

1 cup powdered sugar


Instructions

  1. In a medium bowl, beat the softened cream cheese and peanut butter together until smooth and creamy.
  2. Gradually add the powdered sugar, mixing until fully incorporated and a thick dough forms.
  3. Roll the mixture into 1-inch balls using your hands and place them on a baking sheet lined with parchment or wax paper.
  4. Chill the peanut butter balls in the refrigerator for at least 30 minutes before serving.
  5. Optional: Dip the chilled peanut butter balls in melted chocolate or roll them in crushed nuts, cocoa powder, or sprinkles for extra flair.

Notes

For a variation, you can use crunchy peanut butter instead of creamy for added texture.

If you prefer a chocolate coating, melt your favorite chocolate and dip each peanut butter ball.

Store the peanut butter balls in the refrigerator for up to a week, or freeze them for up to 3 months.
