Ingredients

• 6 Tablespoons butter, softened
• 1/2 cup creamy peanut butter
• 1/4 cup marshmallow cream
• 1/2 teaspoon vanilla
• pinch of salt
• 2 cups powdered sugar
• 1 bag green candy melts
• 30 large candy eyes
• purple sprinkles

Preparation

Step 1

Beat together the butter, peanut butter, marshmallow, vanilla, and salt until creamy.
Slowly beat in the powdered sugar. Roll the mixture into 30 even balls. Place in the refrigerator for at least an hour.
Melt the candy melts according to the package directions. Use a toothpick to dip the peanut butter balls in the melted candy. Place on a piece of parchment paper and pull the toothpick out. Use the toothpick to cover the hole and to drag across the melted candy to create a fur effect.
Press a candy eye in the front and add sprinkles to the top. Let set.

Notes

*Dip the chilled peanut butter balls in batches. I like to pull 10 out at a time to dip in the melted candy melts.

Yield: 30 peanut butter monsters
