Description

Indulge in the rich, creamy texture of Snickers Chocolate Candy Balls, where each bite reveals a delightful crunch from the peanuts and a smooth caramel center. The chocolate coating adds a luscious finish, making these treats a perfect balance of sweet and salty flavors that melt in your mouth.

Ingredients

Scale

For the Candy Balls:
- 1 cup unsalted peanuts, chopped
- 1 cup creamy peanut butter
- 1 cup powdered sugar
- 1 cup caramel sauce
- 2 cups milk chocolate chips

Instructions

In a mixing bowl, combine chopped peanuts, peanut butter, and powdered sugar until well blended.
Form the mixture into small balls, about 1 inch in diameter, and place them on a parchment-lined baking sheet.
Chill the balls in the refrigerator for 30 minutes to firm up.
While the balls are chilling, melt the milk chocolate chips in a microwave-safe bowl in 30-second intervals, stirring until smooth.
Remove the chilled balls from the refrigerator and dip each one into the melted chocolate, ensuring they are fully coated.
Return the chocolate-coated balls to the baking sheet and let them set at room temperature or refrigerate until the chocolate hardens, about 15-20 minutes.

Notes

These candy balls can be made ahead of time and stored in an airtight container in the refrigerator for up to 2 weeks.
For a different flavor, substitute almond butter for peanut butter.
Use dark chocolate instead of milk chocolate for a richer taste.
