Ingredients

  • 2 cups peanut butter powder
  • 1/2 cup powdered sugar

  • 8 oz. dark chocolate chips
  • 1/4 tsp cayenne pepper (optional)

Directions

  1. 1

    In a medium mixing bowl, whisk the peanut butter powder, powdered sugar and salt together. Add the water and stir until well incorporated. The batter will be very stiff.

  2. 2

    Use a cookie scoop to measure out 1 tablespoon portions and place them on a baking sheet lined with waxed paper. Place the sheet into the freezer for 30 minutes.

  3. 3

    Melt the chocolate in a microwave, stirring every 30 seconds until you get a smooth, shiny consistency. (Add the cayenne pepper if desired) Let the chocolate cool but not harden.

  4. 4

    Remove the peanut butter balls from the freezer and roll them into smooth balls with your hands.

  5. 5

    Dip each ball in the melted chocolate, transfer them back to the waxed paper and place them in the refrigerator to set up. Keep refrigerated until ready to serve.
