Ingredients You'll Need
For the bon bons:
1 cup creamy peanut butter
1 cup powdered sugar
1/2 cup unsalted butter, softened
1 teaspoon vanilla extract
2 1/2 cups crushed graham crackers
1/4 cup chopped peanuts (optional)
1/4 cup mini chocolate chips (optional)
For the chocolate coating:
1 pound chocolate candy coating (such as almond bark or chocolate melts)
1 tablespoon vegetable oil
Instructions
Step 1: Prepare the Bon Bon Filling
To make the filling, combine the peanut butter, powdered sugar, butter, and vanilla extract in a large mixing bowl. Mix until well combined and smooth. Then, add in the crushed graham crackers and mix again until fully incorporated. If desired, you can also add in some chopped peanuts and mini chocolate chips for added texture and flavor.
Step 2: Shape the Bon Bons
Using your hands, roll the filling into small balls, about 1 inch in diameter. Place the balls on a baking sheet lined with parchment paper and freeze for at least 30 minutes.
Step 3: Prepare the Chocolate Coating
In a microwave-safe bowl, melt the chocolate candy coating according to the package instructions. Once melted, stir in the vegetable oil until fully combined. This will help the chocolate set and give the bon bons a shiny finish.
Step 4: Coat the Bon Bons
Using a fork or toothpicks, dip each bon bon into the melted chocolate coating, making sure to fully coat it. Then, place the coated bon bons back on the parchment paper-lined baking sheet.
Step 5: Let the Bon Bons Set
Once all the bon bons are coated, let them sit at room temperature until the chocolate has hardened. You can also place them in the refrigerator for quicker setting.
Step 6: Serve and Enjoy!
Once the chocolate has set, these holiday peanut butter bon bons are ready to be enjoyed! Serve them at your next holiday party or package them up as gifts for friends and family. No matter how you enjoy them, these bon bons are sure to be a hit!
