Ingredients
Ingredients:
- 8 oz cream cheese, softened
- 1 cup creamy peanut butter
- 1 cup powdered sugar
Instructions
Instructions:
- Prepare the Mixture: In a large bowl, whisk together the softened cream cheese and peanut butter until smooth and well combined.
- Add Powdered Sugar: Gradually add the powdered sugar, mixing until a thick dough forms.
- Chill the Mixture: Cover the mixture and refrigerate for about 2 hours, or until it becomes firm enough to handle.
- Shape the Snowballs: Once chilled, scoop the dough into tablespoon-sized portions and roll each portion into a ball. Repeat until all the dough is used.
- Coat in Powdered Sugar: Roll each ball generously in powdered sugar, ensuring each snowball is fully coated.
- Store: Place the snowballs in an airtight container and refrigerate for up to 10 days.
Notes
- For a chocolate twist, melt some chocolate and dip each snowball in it before coating in powdered sugar.
- Instead of powdered sugar, roll the snowballs in crushed peanuts or almonds for extra texture.
- Use flavored cream cheese, like strawberry or cinnamon, to alter the taste.
- To make it vegan, swap the cream cheese for a vegan alternative and ensure your powdered sugar is bone-char free.
