### Tips for Success
– **Chill the Peanut Butter Mixture**: Once you’ve mixed the peanut butter and powdered sugar, refrigerate the mixture for 15-30 minutes before rolling. This helps the balls hold their shape and makes them easier to roll.
– **Use High-Quality Peanut Butter**: The flavor of the peanut butter is central to this treat, so choose a natural, high-quality peanut butter without added sugars or hydrogenated oils for the best taste.
– **Roll Evenly**: For consistent-sized balls, use a tablespoon or a cookie scoop to measure the mixture before rolling them into uniform spheres.
– **Melt Chocolate Carefully**: When melting chocolate, do so in short bursts in the microwave (15-20 seconds at a time) or over a double boiler. Stir well between intervals to avoid overheating.
– **Storage**: These peanut butter balls store well in an airtight container for up to a week in the fridge, or can be frozen for longer shelf life. Make sure they’re in a single layer to avoid sticking together.
