Ingredients
Instructions
-
In a mixing bowl, combine the creamy peanut butter, softened butter, powdered sugar, vanilla extract, and salt. Mix well until the ingredients are fully incorporated and the mixture forms a dough-like consistency.
-
Using your hands, roll the peanut butter mixture into small, bite-sized balls and place them on a baking sheet lined with parchment paper. Once all the balls are formed, place them in the freezer for about 30 minutes to firm up.
-
In a microwave-safe bowl, combine the milk chocolate chips and semisweet chocolate chips with the vegetable shortening. Microwave in 30-second intervals, stirring each time, until the chocolate is melted and smooth.
-
Remove the peanut butter balls from the freezer. Using a toothpick or fork, dip each ball into the melted chocolate, making sure to coat it completely. Allow any excess chocolate to drip off before placing the coated truffle back on the parchment-lined baking sheet.
-
Once all the truffles are coated, return them to the freezer for another 15-20 minutes to allow the chocolate to set.
-
Optional: For a decorative touch, drizzle any remaining melted chocolate over the truffles and let them set before serving.
