PEANUT BUTTER BALLS
Peanut butter and chocolate are a perfect pairing--and these sweet and salty peanut butter balls covered in bittersweet chocolate are sure to satisfy your craving. Make sure the balls are chilled and firm before rolling them in the chocolate. It will ensure that they do not fall apart and helps the chocolate set faster. If the chocolate thickens while you are dipping the balls, just pop it back in the microwave for 20 seconds and stir until smooth.

Steps:
- Beat the confectioners' sugar, peanut butter, 2 tablespoons of the butter, vanilla extract and salt in a large bowl with an electric mixer until combined and smooth. Roll the mixture into 24 equal-sized balls (about 1 teaspoon each) and place them on a small baking sheet or tray. Chill in the freezer until firm, about 15 minutes.
- Meanwhile, heat the chocolate and the remaining 2 tablespoons butter in a small microwave-safe bowl in 20 second intervals, stirring between each with a rubber spatula, until melted and smooth.
- Holding with two forks, dip each peanut butter ball into the melted chocolate to evenly coat. Tap off excess chocolate. Place the balls back on the baking sheet. Chill in the refrigerator until the chocolate is firm and set, about 1 hour. Serve chilled. Refrigerate extra balls in an airtight container.
KIDS CAN MAKE: HEALTHY PEANUT BUTTER BALLS
These super easy fiber-packed treats are perfect as an after-school or camp-day snack. (Bonus: they don't need to be refrigerated.) For a more grown-up version, roll them in banana flour (made from freeze-dried bananas) or a little cocoa powder. For little and big kids: Let them help measure ingredients and roll the balls.

Steps:
- Process the raisin bran and brown rice cereals, peanut butter, maple syrup, cherries and 1 tablespoon water in a food processor until the mixture is finely chopped and comes together in a big ball. Roll some into a small ball; if it seems too dry and crumbly, add 1 more tablespoon water.
- Scoop the mixture into slightly mounded tablespoons, then roll them into smooth balls. (Dampen your hands with a little water to help you roll.)
- If using the bananas, pulse them in a food processor until finely ground. Pour them into a small bowl. Roll each truffle in the banana dust until coated. If using the cocoa, pour it into a small bowl, then roll each truffle in it until coated.
- Store the balls at room temperature in an airtight container for up to 2 days.

Steps:
- In a large bowl, cream the butter and peanut butter with a mixer.
- Once it's blended well, slowly add the powdered sugar. Usually, after the second cup, I'll check it every few times to make sure the mixture isn't too dry.
- Once you've added all the sugar, it should be a nice soft consistency, not sticky and easy to roll but not dry to where it crumbles. If you put all the sugar in and it's still to sticky to roll, try putting in more a little at a time until it gets to a good rolling consistency.
- Roll dough into balls. The size depends on how big or little you would like them.
- Lay the balls on the wax paper in a row and then put in the freezer while you melt the chocolate.
- To a medium size pot, add about 2-3 inches of water and bring to a boil. Once boiling, lower to a simmer and place a metal or glass bowl on top, making sure the bottom doesn't touch the water.
- Add chocolate to the metal/glass bowl. Add wax and mix until it and the chocolate are both melted and a smooth consistancy.
- Once the chocolate is melted, take out the peanut butter balls and set them beside your pot of chocolate. Drop in one or two of the balls into the chocolate and then scoop them out with a fork or spoon. Set them on another cookie sheet or pan lined with wax paper.
- Once your finished, set them back in the freezer for about 5-10 minutes or until hard. They're ready to be served or stored in a decorative tin.
