Course: Dessert

Ingredients
  

  • ½ cup peanut butter creamy
  • 3 tbsp dairy-free butter softened
  • 1 cup powdered sugar
  • 1 cup dairy-free chocolate chips
  • 1 tsp coconut oil

Method
 

  1. In a mixing bowl, combine creamy peanut butter and softened dairy-free butter. Gradually stir in the powdered sugar until fully combined. Cover the mixture and place it in the fridge for approximately 15 minutes to firm up.
  2. Shape the chilled dough into 1-inch balls using your hands or a small cookie scoop. Arrange the formed balls on a baking sheet, cover them, and refrigerate for at least 20 minutes.
  3. In a microwave-safe bowl, melt the dairy-free chocolate chips with coconut oil. Stir the mixture every 20 seconds until smooth and well combined.
  4. Using a fork, dip each peanut butter ball one at a time into the melted chocolate. Allow any excess chocolate to fall off. Place the chocolate-coated balls onto wax paper.
  5. Cover the chocolate-coated balls and refrigerate until they are ready to be served.

Notes

Peanut butter ball cookies, stored in an airtight container, can stay fresh for about 1 to 2 weeks at room temperature. To maximize freshness, keeping them in a cool, dry place away from direct sunlight and other heat sources is essential. Additionally, you can extend their shelf life by placing a piece of bread or parchment paper in the container to help absorb any excess moisture and maintain the cookies' texture.
You can refrigerate peanut butter ball cookies for longer storage, and they should remain fresh for up to 3 weeks. If you want to keep them even longer, these cookies can be frozen for about 2 to 3 months. Just let them come to room temperature before serving for the best taste and texture.
