Ingredients

  • 1 cup creamy peanut butter
  • 1/2 cup powdered sugar
  • 1/2 cup graham cracker crumbs
  • 1 teaspoon vanilla extract

For the Chocolate Coating:

  • 2 cups semi-sweet chocolate chips
  • 1 tablespoon coconut oil (optional, for smoothing)

Timing

Making the Reese’s Bombs takes about 15 minutes for preparation and 30 minutes for chilling.

Instructions

Step 1: Prepare the Peanut Butter Filling

  1. Mix Ingredients: In a mixing bowl, combine the peanut butter, powdered sugar, graham cracker crumbs, and vanilla extract. Mix until well combined and smooth.
  2. Form Balls: Using your hands, scoop out small portions of the mixture and roll them into balls (about 1 inch in diameter). Place the balls on a baking sheet lined with parchment paper.

Step 2: Chill the Peanut Butter Balls

  1. Chill: Place the baking sheet with the peanut butter balls in the refrigerator for about 30 minutes to firm up.

Step 3: Prepare the Chocolate Coating

  1. Melt Chocolate: In a microwave-safe bowl, combine the semi-sweet chocolate chips and coconut oil (if using). Microwave in 30-second intervals, stirring in between, until the chocolate is completely melted and smooth.

Step 4: Coat the Peanut Butter Balls

  1. Dip Balls: Using a fork or a toothpick, dip each chilled peanut butter ball into the melted chocolate, ensuring it is fully coated. Allow any excess chocolate to drip off.
  2. Place on Baking Sheet: Return the coated balls to the parchment-lined baking sheet.

Step 5: Set the Chocolate

  1. Chill Again: Once all the balls are coated, place the baking sheet back in the refrigerator for about 15-20 minutes to allow the chocolate to set.

Step 6: Serve

  1. Enjoy: Once the chocolate is set, serve the Reese’s Bombs chilled or at room temperature. Enjoy these delicious treats!
