Total Time: 15 mins
Cuisine: American
Serves: 24 bon bons
Ingredients
- 1 cup creamy peanut butter
- 1 cup graham cracker crumbs
- 1 cup powdered sugar
- 1 cup chocolate chips
- 1 tablespoon vegetable oil
Instructions
- In a large mixing bowl, combine the creamy peanut butter, graham cracker crumbs, and powdered sugar. Mix thoroughly until the ingredients are well blended and form a smooth, cohesive mixture.
- Using clean hands or a small cookie scoop, roll the peanut butter mixture into uniform round balls, approximately 1-inch in diameter. Place the formed bon bons on a parchment-lined baking sheet.
- Place the bon bon tray in the refrigerator for 10 minutes to allow the balls to firm up, which will make them easier to dip in chocolate.
- In a microwave-safe bowl, combine chocolate chips and vegetable oil. Microwave in 30-second intervals, stirring between each interval, until the chocolate is completely melted and smooth.
- Remove the bon bons from the refrigerator. Using a fork or dipping tool, carefully lower each bon bon into the melted chocolate, ensuring complete coverage. Gently tap off excess chocolate and return to the parchment-lined baking sheet.
- Allow the chocolate-coated bon bons to set at room temperature or place the tray in the refrigerator for faster chocolate hardening, approximately 5-10 minutes.
- Once the chocolate has completely set, transfer the bon bons to an airtight container. Store in the refrigerator for up to one week.
Tips
- Chill for Better Dipping: After rolling the bon bons, chilling them for 10 minutes not only helps them hold their shape but also makes dipping in chocolate much easier and cleaner.
- Use Quality Chocolate: For the best flavor, opt for high-quality chocolate chips. Dark, milk, or even white chocolate can elevate your bon bons to the next level.
- Experiment with Toppings: Before the chocolate sets, consider rolling the bon bons in crushed nuts, sprinkles, or coconut for an extra layer of flavor and texture.
- Keep it Neat: When dipping the bon bons in chocolate, use a fork to help you coat them evenly and avoid a mess. Gently tapping the fork against the bowl will help remove excess chocolate.
- Storage Tips: Store your bon bons in an airtight container in the refrigerator to keep them fresh for up to a week. If you want to keep them longer, consider freezing them for a delightful treat anytime!
