Ingredients
- Chocolate Chips: 1 cup semi-sweet chocolate chips (for coating)
- Cream Cheese: 8 ounces, softened
- Peanut Butter: 1 cup creamy (can substitute with almond or sunflower seed butter if needed)
- Powdered Sugar: 2 cups
- Graham Cracker Crumbs: 1½ cups
Instructions
- Prepare Your Workspace
Start by clearing counter space and gathering all necessary tools: mixing bowls, measuring cups, spatulas, and parchment paper. Measure out your ingredients beforehand for a smoother process. Set the mood with some holiday music for a festive atmosphere! - Create the Base Mixture
- In a large mixing bowl, combine softened cream cheese and peanut butter. Use an electric mixer on medium speed until well-blended, about 1 minute.
- Gradually add the powdered sugar, mixing until smooth and lump-free.
- Slowly incorporate the graham cracker crumbs, mixing at low speed until evenly distributed.
- Using clean hands or a cookie scoop, shape the mixture into small balls or bars, as desired.
- Coat Your Treats
- Melt chocolate chips in a microwave-safe bowl, heating in 30-second intervals and stirring until smooth.
- Dip each treat into the melted chocolate, ensuring full coverage, and place on a parchment-lined tray.
- For added texture, roll treats in crushed nuts or sprinkles before the chocolate sets.
- Let the treats cool at room temperature until the chocolate hardens.
- Serving & Storing
Once the treats have set, transfer them to an airtight container. These are perfect for enjoying throughout the holiday season or sharing with loved ones!
Notes
- Flavor Variations: Try using dark or milk chocolate for coating.
- Storage: Store in an airtight container in the refrigerator for up to one week.
