Dark Chocolate Peanut Butter Cake Balls


Having some dark chocolate cake leftover gave me the inspiration to invent these bad boys. They are so rich and peanutty. 


YOU will need a glass of milk to wash them down.




Ingredients

200g (7oz) dark chocolate cake
1 heaped tablespoon smooth peanut butter
1/2 a tablespoon butter (salted or unsalted)
200g (7oz) nice dark chocolate

Method

1. Crumble the cake into a bowl making sure all the big lumps are broken up.




2. Melt the peanut butter and normal butter in a bowl over simmering water and mix until combined. Add this melted goo to the cake crumbs.





3. Mix the crumbs and butters together and roll into little bite size balls.




4. Melt the dark chocolate like the peanut butter and coat each ball in the melted chocolate and drop onto greaseproof paper.



You can always mix the leftover chocolate with a little more peanut butter and drizzle over the set chocolate balls.





5. Leave to set and firm somewhere cool and then either consume with gleeful abandon or box up as a nice gift for a friend!
