Peanut Butter Truffles

1 cup  butter, softened
1 1/2 cups smooth peanut butter
2 teaspoons pure vanilla extract
1/2 teaspoon fine grain sea salt
2 cups confectioners’ sugar, sifted
1 pound chocolate chips

Beat together butter, peanut butter ,vanilla and salt until fluffy. Add confectioners’ sugar one cup at a time, whipping to fully incorporate. Dough will be fluffy but firm; chill briefly if sticky.

Shape dough into 1-inch balls. Freeze at least one hour or overnight.

Place chocolate in small microwave-safe bowl. Microwave 30 seconds on high, stir and continue to microwave in 10- to 20-second intervals, stirring after each until chocolate is melted and smooth. Dip truffles in melted chocolate, and let set.
