Ingredients
  

Base Ingredients
  • 1 cup creamy peanut butter
  • 1 cup powdered sugar
  • ¾ cup graham cracker crumbs
Coating and Decoration
  • 1 cup semi-sweet chocolate chips melted for coating
  • to taste candy eyeballs for decoration

Method
 

Preparation
  1. In a large mixing bowl, combine the creamy peanut butter, powdered sugar, and graham cracker crumbs until well blended, achieving a smooth, malleable dough.
  2. Use your hands to roll the mixture into small, bite-sized balls, about the size of a ping-pong ball, and place them on a parchment-lined baking sheet.
  3. Refrigerate the rolled balls for about 15 minutes to firm them up.
Coating
  1. While the dough is chilling, melt the semi-sweet chocolate chips in the microwave or using a double boiler, stirring frequently until smooth.
  2. Dip each peanut butter ball into the melted chocolate, ensuring it's fully coated, then lift out and let excess chocolate drip off.
  3. Place the chocolate-coated ball back on the parchment paper and immediately top with a candy eyeball while the chocolate is still wet.
Final Steps
  1. Once all the eyeballs are coated and decorated, place them back in the refrigerator for another 15-20 minutes until the chocolate hardens.
