Ingredients

• 1 cup Creamy peanut butter
• 1.5 cups Powdered sugar
• 1 cup Graham cracker crumbs
• 0.25 cup Butter
• 1.5 cups Semi-sweet chocolate chips
• 0.25 cup Heavy cream
• 0.25 teaspoon Sea salt

Directions

Step 1

In a large mixing bowl, combine the creamy peanut butter, powdered sugar, graham cracker crumbs, and butter. Mix well until the mixture forms a cohesive dough.

Step 2

Scoop out 1-tablespoon portions of the mixture and roll each portion into a ball. Place the balls onto a parchment-lined baking sheet.

Step 3

Freeze the peanut butter balls for 15 minutes to firm them up and make coating easier.

Step 4

While the peanut butter balls are chilling, melt the chocolate chips and heavy cream together in a microwave-safe bowl. Heat in 20-second intervals, stirring between each interval, until smooth and fully melted.

Step 5

Using a fork or dipping tool, coat each peanut butter ball with the melted chocolate, letting excess chocolate drip off. Return the coated balls to the parchment-lined baking sheet.

Step 6

While the chocolate is still wet, sprinkle each truffle with a pinch of sea salt for a gourmet touch.

Step 7

Refrigerate the truffles for at least 30 minutes or until the chocolate coating is fully set.

Step 8

Serve chilled and store leftovers in an airtight container in the refrigerator for up to one week.
