No-Bake Peanut Butter Cheesecake Balls Recipe

Ingredients:
For the Cheesecake Balls:

8 oz (225g) cream cheese, softened
1/2 cup (125g) peanut butter (smooth or chunky, depending on your preference)
1/4 cup (50g) powdered sugar
1 teaspoon vanilla extract
1 cup (120g) graham cracker crumbs (or crushed digestive biscuits)
1/2 cup (60g) mini chocolate chips (optional, for added texture)
For the Coating:

1/2 cup (90g) semi-sweet chocolate chips
1 tablespoon coconut oil (or vegetable oil, for a smoother coating)
Optional: Chopped peanuts or extra mini chocolate chips for garnish
Instructions:
1. Make the Cheesecake Ball Mixture:

In a large mixing bowl, beat the cream cheese and peanut butter together with an electric mixer on medium speed until smooth and well-combined. You can also use a hand whisk if you prefer.
Add the powdered sugar and vanilla extract, and mix until everything is smooth and incorporated.
Gradually stir in the graham cracker crumbs (or crushed digestive biscuits). Continue mixing until the mixture thickens and starts to come together. If you'd like a bit of chocolatey crunch, fold in the mini chocolate chips.
2. Form the Cheesecake Balls:

Using your hands or a spoon, scoop out about 1 tablespoon of the mixture and roll it into a ball. Continue rolling until all the mixture has been used up. You should have about 16-20 balls, depending on the size.
Place the balls onto a parchment-lined baking sheet or tray.
3. Chill the Cheesecake Balls:

Refrigerate the cheesecake balls for at least 30 minutes to 1 hour, or until they are firm enough to dip in the chocolate coating.
4. Coat the Cheesecake Balls:

In a microwave-safe bowl, combine the chocolate chips and coconut oil. Microwave in 30-second intervals, stirring in between, until the chocolate is fully melted and smooth.
Dip each cheesecake ball into the melted chocolate, making sure it's fully coated. Use a fork or spoon to remove the ball and allow any excess chocolate to drip off.
Place the chocolate-coated cheesecake balls back onto the parchment-lined tray.
5. Garnish and Chill Again:

If desired, sprinkle the tops of the coated cheesecake balls with chopped peanuts or extra mini chocolate chips for a decorative touch.
Refrigerate the balls for another 30 minutes to allow the chocolate coating to set.
6. Serve:

Once the chocolate is firm, the cheesecake balls are ready to serve! Enjoy immediately or store them in an airtight container in the refrigerator for up to 1 week.
