List of Ingredients
3/4 cup firmly packed light brown sugar
1/4 cup unsalted butter, melted and cooled
3/4 cup graham cracker crumbs
1 cup creamy peanut butter
16 ounces semisweet chocolate or bittersweet chocolate
Recipe
In a bowl stir together the brown sugar, 1/2 stick of butter, the graham cracker crumbs, and the peanut butter until the mixture is smooth and chill the mixture, covered, for 1 hour, or until it is firm enough to form into balls.
Form teaspoonfuls of the mixture into balls and transfer the balls as they are formed to a baking sheet lined with parchment paper- chill well or freeze until firm (makes dipping a lot easier).
In a metal bowl set over a pan of barely simmering water melt the chocolate, stirring until smooth, and let the chocolate cool.
Dip the balls into the chocolate mixture with a fork, coating them well and letting the excess drip off, transfer them as they are coated to the baking sheet, and chill them, covered loosely, for at least 1 hour or overnight.
(The balls may be double-dipped if desired.).
