For those who still eat dairy/nuts on occasion, these are really good.
Peanut Butter Cheesecake Balls
Ingredients:
2-8 ounce chilled Cream Cheese
1 cup creamy Peanut Butter
1 package of Almond Bark (or whatever chocolate you desire)
Crushed Roasted Peanuts (optional)
Mix the peanut butter and cream cheese together thoroughly.
Roll into medium sized balls and place onto something with a flat surface, (plate, cookie sheet etc.) lined with parchment paper that will fit into your freezer space. Freeze for 1-2 hours until solid.
Place the chocolate or bark in a bowl and microwave for 1 minute. Stir and heat an additional 15 seconds, and stir again until it’s smooth and creamy. Stirring is extremely important in this case to avoid overheating the chocolate/bark, so be sure and stir it really well in between heating. Do not over heat.
Us a fork to dip the cheesecake balls into the bowl of chocolate/bark. Sit it back on the parchment lined sheet and quickly sprinkle with the crushed peanuts if desired, before they harden. If using bark, they will harden quickly. If using melted chocolate, you may need to place back in the freezer until the chocolate hardens. Refrigerate until ready to devour!
