- Using a spoon, carefully pour the melted chocolate over each peanut butter ball, covering it completely.
- Refrigerate the peanut butter cups for at least 30 minutes, or until the chocolate has hardened.

Notes
- For a twist, you can sprinkle a little sea salt on top of each peanut butter cup before refrigerating.
- If you don’t have a microwave, you can melt the chocolate using a double boiler on the stove.
- For a smoother texture, make sure the peanut butter mixture is free of lumps before rolling it into balls.
