These are so yummy and easier to make than I thought. I looked up a few peanut butter ball recipes and they all were different – different measurements and slight variations on ingredients, so I just kind of did my own thing with this.
No Bake Dipped PB Choc Chip Balls
Balls:
1.5c Peanut butter
1 stick butter, softened
2c (about 8) crushed graham crackers
3c confectioner’s (powdered) sugar
1/4c mini morsels/Choc chips
Coating:
Almond bark or melted chocolate chips
1. Soften butter in microwave safe dish only 20 seconds at a time.
2. Bust up the graham crackers and put them into a large ziploc bag. Use a rolling pin, a jar, etc to further crush the crackers up.
3. Combine ingredients and mix together until it’s clumping up.
4. Roll into balls in the palms of your hands.
5. Put the balls in the fridge and torture everyone (including myself) all night. Everytime the fridge door opens you get a scent of yummy peanut butter!
6. Carefully melt your coating and dip/roll the balls then set on waxed paper.
7. Decorate with sprinkles if desired before the coating hardens.
8. Eat! Enjoy!

I am going to try to make these with Golden Grahams, since I have those but no graham crackers. I have been wanting something like this so I am going to see how the substitution works. I will let know!

Yum! I may have to make these this week. Of course my husband will yell at me for making more stuff, but how often do I have all of the ingredients on hand???
