  • Chocolate candy melter, chocolate chips and paraffin on a counter top.

    Step 3

    While peanut butter mixture is freezing, prepare to make chocolate coating. Note: freezing the mixture makes dipping it in chocolate easier, but it is not necessary. In a chocolate candy melter or double broiler, melt semi sweet chocolate morsels and shortening.

  • Step 4

    After your coating has completely melted, take your frozen peanut butter balls and completely submerge in chocolate mixture using a fork or chocolate dipping tool. Place back on parchment paper. Top your chocolates with sprinkles or toppings of your choice if desired.
