Ingredients
- 1 1/2 cups creamy peanut butter
- 2 cups powdered sugar
- 1/3 cup butter melted
- 3/4 cup Graham cracker crumbs
- I teaspoon vanilla extract
- 1 Cup Ghirardelli's white chocolate melting wafers
- Sprinkles for garnish
Instructions
- Combine the peanut butter, butter, and vanilla extract in a large mixing bowl. Using a hand mixer, beat until well combined.
- Beat in the powdered sugar and graham cracker crumbs.
- Cover with saran wrap and place in the refrigerator for 30 minutes.
- Remove from the refrigerator and scoop small Tablespoon size portions and roll into balls.
- Repeat until all the dough has been made into balls.
- Cover with seran wrap and place into the freezer for 1 hour or overnight.
- Place the melting chocolate in a microwave safe bowl and place in the microwave for 30 seconds, remove and stir if needed, repeat until the chocolate is melted and smooth.
- Place a cooling rack on a cookie sheet, or line wax paper.
- Use a fork and carefully dip each peanut butter ball into the melted chocolate, working quickly so the balls don't get too soft. Place onto parchment paper.
- Sprinkle with the sprinkles as you go along so the chocolate doesn't harden.
- Let harden before serving.
Notes
- Tips: After rolling the balls freeze for a minimum of an hour before dipping in the white chocolate. Ghirardelli melting wafers is best for dipping, if you use a different brand you will need an additional Tablespoon of butter per cup of chocolate. Once the peanut butter balls are dipped, add the sprinkles before the chocolate hardens. Let the peanut butter balls harden before serving for best results. These make great gifts, perfect addition to a Christmas party.
- Storage: Store in an airtight container on the counter for up to 5 days or in the refrigerator for up to 2 weeks. These may also be frozen for up to 3 months.
