Peanut Butter Date Balls image

My mom always had these cookies on our Xmas cookie trays. It is an absolute must every year! Everyone loves these! (I believe that Mom cut this recipe from a magazine but I don't know its origin.) The preparation time includes chilling time in the fridge.

Categories     Dessert

Time 2h25m

Yield 4 dozen, 12 serving(s)

Number Of Ingredients 7

1 cup peanut butter
1 cup icing sugar
2 tablespoons butter
1 cup dates, chopped
1 cup peanuts, chopped fine (unsalted)
2 tablespoons butter
8 ounces semi-sweet chocolate chips

Steps:

  • Soften the peanut butter by microwaving for about one minute on Power Level 3.
  • In a medium bowl, cream peanut butter and butter.
  • Stir in icing sugar, dates and peanuts and mix well.
  • Roll the peanut butter mixture into 1" balls or whatever size you like, if dough is sticky, refrigerate for 30 minutes or so before rolling.
  • Place on waxed paper lined baking trays and refrigerate until firm, about 1 hour.
  • Place butter and chocolate chips in microwave safe bowl and melt the chocolate at 30 second intervals until smooth (I usually do this at Power Level 6 so that it doesn't overcook).
  • Dip the balls into the chocolate and place back onto the wax paper lined trays and pop into the fridge again for an hour or so.
  • These freeze beautifully - I place balls into tupperware and put wax paper between the layers.

I'm allergic to peanuts, so I made these peanut butter date balls with almond butter instead. They were still really good!

I had a hard time getting these peanut butter date balls to hold together. I think I might have used too much peanut butter. I'll try again with less next time.

These peanut butter date balls were a bit too sweet for my taste, but they were still good. I think I'll try making them again with less honey.
