Peanut Butter Balls
Description
A classic no-bake peanut butter candy — peanut butter, butter, powdered sugar, and vanilla rolled into balls and dipped in melted chocolate chips and paraffin for a firm, glossy shell. The homemade version of a Reese’s Cup, with a richer peanut butter flavor and a satisfying snap from the paraffin-set chocolate.

Note
Keep the balls refrigerated between dipping batches — warm dough sticks to the dipping fork and the chocolate takes longer to set.
