Follow The Directions

01

Step
5 mins

Pulse vanilla wafers in a food processor until finely ground, resembling sand. Transfer to a large mixing bowl. (5 minutes)

02

Step
3 mins

In the same food processor, finely chop the unsalted peanuts. Add them to the bowl with the vanilla wafer crumbs. (3 minutes)

03

Step
5 mins

Add 1 cup of powdered sugar, peanut butter whiskey, honey, creamy peanut butter, and kosher salt to the bowl. Mix thoroughly until a cohesive dough forms. (5 minutes)

04

Step
10 mins

Using your hands, roll the mixture into approximately 20 balls, each about 1 1/2 inches in diameter. (10 minutes)

05

Step
2 mins

In a shallow dish, whisk together the cocoa powder and the remaining 1/4 cup of powdered sugar until evenly combined. (2 minutes)

06

Step
5 mins

Roll each whiskey ball in the cocoa-sugar mixture, ensuring they are lightly and evenly coated. (5 minutes)

07

Step
20 mins

Place the coated whiskey balls on a baking sheet lined with parchment paper. Chill in the refrigerator for at least 20 minutes to allow them to firm up. (20 minutes)

For a smoother texture, use a high-quality creamy peanut butter.
If you don't have peanut butter whiskey, you can substitute with your favorite brand of whiskey and add a teaspoon of peanut butter extract to enhance the peanut flavor.
These whiskey balls can be stored in an airtight container in the refrigerator for up to 2 weeks.
Experiment with different coatings! Try chopped nuts, sprinkles, or melted chocolate.
For a non-alcoholic version, substitute the whiskey with milk or cream and add peanut butter extract.
