Peanut Butter Snowballs, a creamy treat dipped in white chocolate! No-baking required and just four ingredients are needed to make these. An easy treat to make with kids!
These no-bake peanut butter snowball treats are wonderful any time of year, but these seem to make it to the cooking tray only over the Christmas season!
My Christmas cookie tray is full with Ricotta Cheese Holiday Cookies, Persimmon Cookies, Cranberry Coconut Cookies, and Butter Brickle Cookies as well as sweets from a cookie swap.
I keep hearing “the more the merrier” singing in my ears so I decided to add a few Peanut Butter Snowballs to the mix!
These are super easy to make and you probably have all the ingredients; peanut butter, powdered sugar, butter and white candy melts in your baking stash.
Since you don’t need to worry about a hot oven to make these, it’s a great recipe to whip up with little ones!
You may end up sampling a few more when making with kids, but that’s ok because you can easily double the recipe to make up for those taste testers.
Keep this recipe in mind when you need a quick hostess gift for the days you are holiday party hoping!
Or, heck, make these when you just can’t stop adding another batch of sweets to your cookie tray!
Peanut butter paired with any type of chocolate is heavenly, you know that 🙂
Enjoy!!
Oh, and if you want to add another delicious no-bake recipe to your dessert table, try these Tiramisu Oreo Truffles for Anyonita Nibbles and these no bake Peanut Butter and Chocolate Cornflake Cookies from Platter Talk!
Creamy peanut butter filling covered in white chocolate. These easy no bake treats are enjoyed mostly during the holiday season In a medium mixing bowl, combine sugar, peanut butter and butter; mix well. Shape into 1-inch balls and place on a waxed or parchment paper lined cookie sheet. Chill for 30 minutes or until firm. Melt the white candy coating in a microwave safe bowl (defrost at 30 second increments) until smooth. Dip balls and place on lined cookie sheet to harden. I speared each ball with a skewer, dipped them in the melted coating, then lifted them off with a fork!Peanut Butter Snowballs

I want to try these. I think that they would be good with some dark chocolate shavings and a candied cherry in the center too.
Sandra
That sounds so good! Milk chocolate would be delicious too!
michelle
these are very tasty if you use almond butter instead of peanutbutter…just adds a whole different but delicious taste!
michelle
these would also be very tasty if almond butter in place of peanut butter was used.
Sandra
I love almond butter! If you swap it out, let me know how it came out!
Lorra
Has anyone tried these with soy butter or wow butter?? (Living with children with peanut allergies can present recipe challenges)
AnnMarie Ore

Liz Daigle
Yum! Totally gonna be making these for a Christmas party! 😀
Sandra Shaffer
May I suggest you double the recipe?! They go quick 🙂
Melissa
I made these a few years ago & everyone loved them!! I made them with milk chocolate, too! But I liked these because they fit for winter & look like snowballs. I even added white/clear sprinkles to some of them so they looked like they were glistening.
Sandra Shaffer
I just made a batch! Great idea to add the pretty sprinkles!
Brittney
I would love to have these on my wedding dessert table! How long will they stay good in the fridge? I was hoping to make them 2 weeks in advance. Thanks so much for the help!
Sandra Shaffer
The peanut butter center will last several weeks in an airtight container, but I’m not sure if the chocolate will sweat moisture. You could make all the balls, then coat them a week in advance and I bet they’ll be fine.

What’s the best way to store

Covered in the refrigerator is the best way to store these snowballs.
