These decadent M&M and peanut butter candy balls are an ideal dessert to make with any leftover Halloween candy you have. These sweet treats are portioned into single servings and they require no baking, making them incredibly easy and quick to put together.
The recipe calls for colorful M&M chocolates mixed with peanut butter, melted butter and icing sugar to from a dough-like mixture that is then rolled into balls. Once hardened the balls can be dipped in a layer of melted chocolate and topped with a single M&M chocolate on top. These would be a great dessert to make using leftover bags of Halloween candy and can easily be customized to suit any chocolate sweets such as Kit-Kats, Snickers or Coffee Crips simply by smashing the chocolate into tiny pieces.
