  • Author: Lauren Baker
  • Total Time: 32 minute

Ingredients

– 8 oz cream cheese, softened
– 1 cup creamy peanut butter
– 1/2 cup powdered sugar
– 1 tsp vanilla extract
– 1 cup graham cracker crumbs
– 1 cup chocolate chips (for coating)
– 1/4 cup chopped peanuts (optional, for garnish)


Instructions

Making No-Bake Peanut Butter Cheesecake Balls is a breeze when you follow these simple steps:

1. Prepare the Cream Cheese: In a large mixing bowl, beat the softened cream cheese until smooth.
2. Add Peanut Butter: Mix in the creamy peanut butter until fully combined with the cream cheese.
3. Incorporate Sugar and Vanilla: Add the powdered sugar and vanilla extract to the mixture. Stir until smooth and creamy.
4. Mix in Graham Cracker Crumbs: Gradually add the graham cracker crumbs to the mixture, stirring until well combined.
5. Chill the Mixture: Cover the bowl with plastic wrap and refrigerate for about 30 minutes to firm up the mixture.
6. Form the Balls: Once chilled, use a small cookie scoop or your hands to form the mixture into small balls, about 1 inch in diameter.
7. Melt the Chocolate: In a microwave-safe bowl, melt the chocolate chips in 30-second intervals, stirring in between until smooth.
8. Coat the Balls: Dip each cheesecake ball into the melted chocolate, ensuring they are fully coated. Use a fork to remove them, allowing excess chocolate to drip off.
9. Garnish (Optional): If desired, sprinkle chopped peanuts over the chocolate coating before it sets.
10. Chill Again: Place the coated balls on a parchment-lined baking sheet and refrigerate for at least 30 minutes until the chocolate hardens.

These simple steps will guide you in creating these incredible No-Bake Peanut Butter Cheesecake Balls with ease.
