This recipe is now a holiday standard in my house. The pecans and graham crackers are a must in my book. I freeze the balls to chill them and take them out in shifts and then back into the freezer with the chocolate coating. Growing up my grandmother had made peanut butter balls, but there was no recipe, and unfortunately it was not passed on to anyone, this recipe is an excellent replacement and is now our standard.

Oh my! These were such a hit at our office potluck. I made the recipe as listed, using only 2 cups of the graham cracker crumbs, but it was still just a bit too "dry" to form ball. I just added another 1/4 cup of butter. If you're making this in the first place, the chances are calorie trimming is not the goal. That did the trick, and the balls were doable. It is absolutely imperative to chill the peanut butter balls before dipping them as they will fall apart. Once they're dipped, the cooler temperature helps the chocolate "set" more quickly. Using the small bit of wax really makes the coating shine. The big test: They were delicious!!!! Everyone loved them! Think I'll have one now.

The was great and pretty easy! I used crunchy peanut butter because that was what i had on hand but that was just one less step and no need for the almonds! Everything was keep the same! For dipping i did some in white chocolate and some in regular chocolate! Thank you for sharing this recipe!

This recipe was great! I used a fondue kit to warm up the chocolate which probably is why the chocolate didn't coat very evenly. Next time I would use a double broiler. I would probably also use the full amount of graham cracker crumbs that the recipe called for. From reading the reviews I used 2 cups, next time to get more of a crunch I will use 2 1/2, and probably more nuts. I also used almonds. All in all, good recipe!

Made these for the husband - he set the peanut butter jar on my desk as a hint for more. Made these for work - the girls came over for cooking lessons on how to make these! SOOOO GOOD!
