Voodoo Balls Mixture
- 1 1/2 cups peanut butter (creamy or chunky)
- 1 cup powdered sugar
- 1 tsp vanilla extract
- 1/2 cup graham cracker crumbs
- 1/4 cup cocoa powder
Chocolate Coating
- 1/2 cup semi-sweet chocolate chips
- 1 tbsp coconut oil (for melting the chocolate)

Instructions
- Prepare the Voodoo Balls Mixture: In a large mixing bowl, combine the peanut butter, powdered sugar, graham cracker crumbs, cocoa powder, and vanilla extract.
- Mix the ingredients: Stir the mixture until well combined and smooth. If the mixture is too dry, add a little more peanut butter to bring it together.
- Shape the Voodoo Balls: Using your hands, scoop out small amounts of the mixture and roll them into balls, about 1-inch in diameter.
- Place on baking sheet: Arrange the balls on a baking sheet lined with parchment paper or a silicone mat.
- Prepare the Chocolate Coating: In a microwave-safe bowl, melt the semi-sweet chocolate chips and coconut oil by heating in 30-second intervals, stirring between each interval, until completely smooth and melted.
- Coat the Voodoo Balls: Dip each peanut butter ball into the melted chocolate, coating it completely.
- Place coated balls: Return the coated balls to the parchment-lined baking sheet.
- Chill and Set: Place the baking sheet in the refrigerator for about 30-60 minutes until the chocolate coating is fully set and hardened.
- Decorate (optional): Add candy eyes or sprinkles on the set chocolate for a spooky decoration.
- Serve and Enjoy: Serve chilled and enjoy these delicious, no-bake Voodoo Balls!
Notes
- If the mixture is too crumbly, add a small spoon of peanut butter until it holds shape well.
- You can substitute semi-sweet chocolate chips with dark or milk chocolate based on preference.
- Store the Voodoo Balls in an airtight container in the refrigerator to keep them fresh.
- These treats are gluten-free if using certified gluten-free graham cracker crumbs.
