Instructions:
- Mix the Base: In a large bowl, combine peanut butter, softened butter, vanilla extract, and powdered sugar. Stir until smooth and creamy.
- Add Crushed Graham Crackers: Stir in the crushed graham crackers until the mixture is well combined.
- Shape the Balls: Using your hands, roll the peanut butter mixture into small balls, about 1 inch in diameter. Place them on a baking sheet lined with parchment paper.
- Chill: Refrigerate the peanut butter balls for at least 30 minutes, allowing them to firm up.
- Melt the Chocolate: In a microwave-safe bowl, melt the chocolate chips in 20-second intervals, stirring in between, until smooth and completely melted.
- Coat the Balls: Dip each chilled peanut butter ball into the melted chocolate, ensuring it’s fully coated. Place back onto the parchment paper to set.
- Set and Serve: Allow the chocolate coating to harden at room temperature or in the refrigerator for a quicker set. Once set, your Butterfinger Balls are ready to enjoy!
Serving Notes:
These Peanut Butter Balls are perfect for any occasion—holidays, parties, or just a sweet treat after dinner.
Store them in an airtight container in the refrigerator for up to 1 week (if they last that long!).
For extra crunch, you can sprinkle some chopped peanuts or additional crushed graham crackers on top before the chocolate sets.
Pro Tip: For a more festive touch, drizzle extra melted chocolate over the top of the coated balls for a beautiful design!
