Ingredients
Scale
- 1 cup cream cheese, softened
- 1/2 cup smooth peanut butter
- 1/4 cup powdered sugar
- 1/2 teaspoon vanilla extract
- 1 cup graham cracker crumbs
- 1 cup semi-sweet chocolate chips
- 1 tablespoon coconut oil
Instructions
- In a large bowl, blend the softened cream cheese, peanut butter, powdered sugar, and vanilla extract until smooth and well combined.
- Mix in the graham cracker crumbs until a soft, dough-like consistency forms.
- Scoop out small portions of the mixture and roll them into 1-inch balls. Place on a baking sheet lined with parchment paper.
- Freeze the cheesecake balls for 20-30 minutes until firm.
- Melt the chocolate chips and coconut oil together in a microwave-safe bowl, stirring every 20 seconds until smooth.
- Dip each firm cheesecake ball into the melted chocolate, using a fork to coat evenly.
- Place the chocolate-covered balls back onto the parchment paper and refrigerate until the chocolate sets.
Notes
- If you prefer a crunch, use crunchy peanut butter instead of smooth.
- These can be rolled in crushed peanuts, sprinkles, or mini chocolate chips for extra flair.
- Ensure the cream cheese is fully softened for the smoothest texture.
