Ingredients
- 1 cup peanut butter (creamy)
- 0.5 cup unsalted butter
- 2 cups powdered sugar
- 1 cup graham cracker crumbs
- 1.5 cups semi-sweet chocolate chips
- 1 tablespoon shortening or coconut oil
Directions
Step 1
Line a baking sheet with parchment paper or a silicone baking mat and set aside.
Step 2
In a large mixing bowl, combine the peanut butter and unsalted butter. Use a hand mixer or spatula to blend until smooth and well incorporated.
Step 3
Gradually mix in the powdered sugar and graham cracker crumbs until the mixture becomes thick and moldable.
Step 4
Scoop out 1-tablespoon-sized portions of the peanut butter mixture and roll into smooth balls using your hands. Place the balls on the prepared baking sheet.
Step 5
Chill the peanut butter balls in the refrigerator for 30 minutes to firm up.
Step 6
In a microwave-safe bowl, combine the semi-sweet chocolate chips and shortening or coconut oil. Microwave in 20-second intervals, stirring in between, until the chocolate is fully melted and smooth.
Step 7
Remove the peanut butter balls from the refrigerator. Using a fork or skewer, dip each ball into the melted chocolate, ensuring it is fully coated. Let any excess chocolate drip off before placing the bonbon back onto the lined baking sheet.
Step 8
Once all the bonbons are coated in chocolate, return the baking sheet to the refrigerator for 20 minutes to let the chocolate set completely.
Step 9
Serve immediately or store in an airtight container in the refrigerator for up to 2 weeks.
