How to Make Irresistible Chocolate Peanut Butter Snowballs
  1. In a medium bowl, combine creamy peanut butter, melted butter, and vanilla until smooth.
  2. Gradually mix in powdered sugar, stirring until you achieve a dense, dough-like consistency.
  3. Using a spoon, scoop teaspoon-sized portions and roll them into balls about one inch in diameter.
  4. Place the rolled balls on a parchment-lined baking sheet and refrigerate for at least 25 minutes.
  5. In a microwave-safe bowl, melt chocolate wafers in 20-30 second intervals until smooth.
  6. Dip each chilled snowball into the melted chocolate, ensuring every bit is covered.
  7. In another bowl, melt caramel candies with cream until smooth, then drizzle it over the chocolate-covered snowballs.
  8. Return the trays to the fridge for 15-20 minutes until the chocolate and caramel set.
