How to Make a No Bake Peanut Butter Ball
Line a cookie sheet with parchment paper
Break 2 cups of unfrosted corn flakes into smaller pieces
Combine crumbled corn flakes with 2/3 cup of confectioners’ sugar, 1/2 stick of softened unsalted butter, and 2/3 cup of either smooth or chunky peanut butter using either a wooden spoon or your hands
Shape peanut butter mix into approximately 1-inch balls and place them on prepared cookie sheet
Spread about ¼ cup of chopped peanuts in a flat dish
Coarsely chop 5 oz of semisweet chocolate and combine it with 1 teaspoon of vegetable oil in a heat proof bowl.
Bring some water to a simmer in a saucepan over medium heat
Position the bowl of chopped chocolate and vegetable oil over this saucepan. Make sure that bottom of bowl does not touch the simmering water
Stir constantly to slowly melt the chocolate. Then remove chocolate from heat, but keep bowl over pot of water
Using two forks, dip one cookie at a time in the melted chocolate
Transfer it to the dish containing chopped peanuts, and coat it evenly
Place it back on parchment-lined sheet. Repeat with the remaining cookies, adding more chopped peanuts as needed (about 1 cup in total for this recipe)
Repeat the heating procedure if chocolate begins to thicken.
Either air dry these chocolate peanut butter balls or refrigerate them. To easily create another variety, do not coat them with chopped peanuts.
