How to Make a Reese’s Cheese Ball
Step 1: Mix the Base
In a large bowl, beat the softened cream cheese, peanut butter, powdered sugar, brown sugar, and vanilla extract until smooth and creamy.
Step 2: Add the Good Stuff
Gently fold in the mini Reese’s Pieces, mini chocolate chips, and crushed peanut butter cups (if using). Make sure everything is evenly distributed.
Step 3: Shape and Chill
Scoop the mixture onto a sheet of plastic wrap and form it into a ball. Wrap it tightly and refrigerate for at least 1 hour, or until firm.
Step 4: Coat and Serve
In a shallow dish, mix the coating ingredients. Unwrap the chilled cheese ball and roll it in the candy mixture until it’s fully coated.
Step 5: Plate and Dip
Transfer the coated cheese ball to a serving plate and surround it with graham crackers, pretzels, vanilla wafers, or apple slices for dipping.
Pro Tips for the Best Dessert Cheese Ball
Soften the cream cheese: This ensures a smooth texture.
Use a cookie scoop or clean hands to help shape the ball easily.
Chill time matters: Don’t skip it—chilling helps the cheese ball hold its shape.
Switch it up: Use M&M’s, white chocolate chips, or even toffee bits for a fun twist.
