Ingredients
  

For the Cheesecake Balls
  • 1 cup creamy peanut butter The creamier, the better!
  • 8 oz cream cheese, softened
  • 1 cup powdered sugar
  • 1 tsp vanilla extract
  • 1.5 cups graham cracker crumbs For added crunch
  • 1 cup chocolate chips For coating

Method
 

Preparation
  1. In a large mixing bowl, beat together the softened cream cheese and peanut butter until smooth and creamy.
  2. Gradually mix in the powdered sugar and vanilla extract. Beat until well combined and fluffy.
  3. Slowly fold in the graham cracker crumbs until fully incorporated.
  4. Cover the bowl with plastic wrap and chill the mixture in the fridge for about 30 minutes.
  5. Once chilled, scoop out tablespoonfuls of mixture and roll them into bite-sized balls.
  6. Place them on a baking sheet lined with parchment paper.
  7. In a microwave-safe bowl, melt the chocolate chips in 30-second intervals, stirring each time until smooth.
  8. Dip each cheesecake ball in the melted chocolate, making sure they’re fully coated.
  9. Return the chocolate-coated balls to the baking sheet and place back in the fridge until the chocolate hardens (about 30-60 minutes).
  10. Once set, serve and enjoy!

Notes

You can use crunchy peanut butter for added texture or sprinkle sea salt on top of the chocolate for a sweet-and-salty flavor. Store in an airtight container in the refrigerator for about a week or freeze for up to three months.
