Peanut Butter Balls
11 steps
Prep:1h
The older I get the more I admire the hospitality of my grandmother over the holidays. She would make a dozen different cookies, bars, and these peanut butter balls every single year — all on top of making a huge dinner spread and housing guests overnight. I did not recognize the amount of work and personal sacrifice she gave to making everything so nice until I started hosting events in my own home. I wish I could sincerely thank her one last time.

Instructions
Step 1
Crush graham crackers by sending through a blender or food processor.
Step 2
Combine peanut butter, butter, powdered sugar, and graham crumbs in large mixing bowl and mix until uniform.
Step 3
Line a baking sheet with parchment or wax paper.
Step 4
Using a tablespoon measuring spoon or dough baller, scoop and form 1" balls on lined baking sheet.

Step 6
Melt chocolate and shortening in a small double boiler or fondue pot.
Step 7
Remove about ⅓ of the peanut butter balls from the freezer and pick one up at a time with a toothpick. (This keeps the others nice and frozen while you work in batches.)

Use the toothpick to create a swirl pattern to cover the toothpick hole.**
