Ingredients
  

  • 1 cup creamy peanut butter
  • 6 oz cream cheese softened
  • cups powdered sugar sifted

Instructions
 

  • Beat the cream cheese and peanut butter in a large bowl using an electric mixer until smooth and fluffy. Add the {sifted} powdered sugar and mix on low speed until incorporated before returning to medium-high speed, mixing until fluffy. Refrigerate the filling for at least 1 hour before shaping the balls. Transfer the peanut butter mixture to the freezer to set for quicker firming.
  • Line a cookie sheet with parchment paper. Once the cream cheese mixture has firmed up, grease your hands with cooking spray. Scoop the mixture using a small cookie scoop and roll it into bite-sized balls. Place the peanut butter balls on the prepared baking sheet.
  • Allow the cheesecake balls to chill in the refrigerator for about 4 hours to firm up. Roll the balls in toppings or coat them in chocolate if desired.
