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.

Ingredients
  • 1 Cup Peanut butter
  • 1 Cup Butter
  • 1 pkg. Powdered sugar
  • 1 1/2 tsp. Vanilla
  • 1/4 blocks Paraffin
  • 1/2 pkg. ½ pkg. Chocolate chips
Instructions
  1. 1
    Mix peanut butter, butter, powdered sugar, and vanilla together until well combined.
  2. 2
    Form the mixture into small balls. Place on a waxed paper-lined baking sheet.
  3. 3
    Refrigerate until firm, about 1 hour.
  4. 4
    Melt chocolate chips and paraffin together over low heat, stirring until smooth.
  5. 5
    Dip each ball into the chocolate mixture and place on waxed paper to cool and harden.

Note

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