Chocolate-Covered Peanut Butter Balls

In a microwave-safe bowl, combine the semi-sweet chocolate chips and coconut oil (if using).
Microwave in 30-second intervals, stirring in between, until the chocolate is fully melted and smooth.
Coat the Peanut Butter Balls:
Remove the chilled peanut butter balls from the freezer. Using a fork or a toothpick, dip each ball into the melted chocolate, allowing excess chocolate to drip off.
Return the coated balls to the parchment-lined baking sheet.
Chill and Set:
Once all the balls are coated, place the baking sheet in the refrigerator for about 30 minutes, or until the chocolate has hardened.
Serve:
Enjoy your Chocolate-Covered Peanut Butter Balls as a delightful snack or dessert! Store any leftovers in an airtight container in the refrigerator for up to a week.
Tips
Variations: You can use milk chocolate or white chocolate for coating, depending on your preference. You can also mix in crushed nuts or add a sprinkle of sea salt on top of the chocolate before it sets for extra flavor.
Storage: These can be frozen for longer storage; just place them in an airtight container with parchment paper between layers.
