Utokia’s Chocolate Peanut Butter Candies

Chocolate and peanut butter candies are rolled in chopped nuts, flaked coconut, or sprinkles–your choice–for these sweet little treats individually wrapped in parchment paper.

Original recipe makes 24 candies

Ingredients

Reynolds® Parchment Paper
1 1/2 cups powdered sugar
1/2 cup peanut butter
4 ounces semi-sweet or dark chocolate, melted
3 tablespoons butter, softened
1 tablespoon milk, or as needed
Candy coatings:
finely chopped nuts
sweetened flaked coconut
shaved chocolate
multicolored candy sprinkles

Directions

  1. Beat together powdered sugar, peanut butter, melted chocolate, butter and milk with an electric mixer on low speed until blended. Add additional milk if mixture is too dry to hold together.
  2. Divide mixture in half. Place each half on a 12-inch sheet of Reynolds® Parchment Paper. Shape half into a log, about 1-inch round x 8-inches long; roll log in parchment paper, twisting ends to secure. Refrigerate about 1 hour until chilled.
  3. Unwrap log. Slice and shape into 1-inch balls. Roll chocolate balls in candy coatings.
  4. Wrap individual candies in small squares of parchment paper or place in air-tight parchment lined container. Refrigerate until ready to serve.
