Ingredients
  

  • 1 (18 oz.) jar of smooth peanut butter
  • 1 (16 oz.) bag of confectioners' sugar
  • 1/4 cup unsalted butter, melted
  • 12 oz semi-sweet chocolate chips (or chocolate candy melts)
  • 2 tsp shortening (for smooth chocolate coating)

Instructions
 

Mix the Filling

  • In a large bowl, combine the peanut butter, confectioners’ sugar, and melted butter.
  • Use your hands to mix until the dough becomes smooth and pliable. This ensures the filling holds together for rolling.

Shape the Balls

  • Line a baking sheet with wax paper or foil.
  • Roll the mixture into 1-inch balls and place them on the sheet in rows.
  • Chill in the freezer for 10 minutes to firm up the filling, making it easier to dip into chocolate.

Melt the Chocolate

  • In a microwave-safe bowl, combine the chocolate chips and shortening.
  • Heat in 30-second intervals, stirring in between, until the chocolate is smooth and glossy.

Coat the Balls

  • Remove the chilled balls from the freezer. Insert a toothpick or skewer into each ball and dip it into the melted chocolate.
  • Swirl the chocolate to coat evenly, then place the dipped balls onto a fresh sheet of wax paper.
  • For a decorative touch, drizzle extra chocolate on top or add sprinkles before the coating hardens.

Set and Store

  • Let the chocolate set completely in the refrigerator.
  • Store the Doo Doo Balls in an airtight container in the fridge to keep them fresh and firm.
