Ingredients
- 1 cup creamy peanut butter
- 8 oz cream cheese, softened
- 1 cup powdered sugar
- 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
- 1/2 cup graham cracker crumbs
- 1/2 cup mini chocolate chips (optional)
- 1/4 teaspoon sea salt
Feel free to experiment with substitutions. For example, you can swap out the graham cracker crumbs for crushed pretzels for a salty twist, or use dark chocolate chips for a richer flavor.
Instructions
- In a medium bowl, combine the softened cream cheese and peanut butter. Mix until smooth and well-blended, about 2 minutes.
- Add the powdered sugar and vanilla extract. Continue mixing until all ingredients are thoroughly incorporated and the mixture is creamy.
- Gently fold in the graham cracker crumbs and mini chocolate chips, if using. Stir until evenly distributed.
- Using a small cookie scoop or your hands, roll the mixture into 1-inch balls and place them on a lined baking sheet.
- Sprinkle a pinch of sea salt over each ball for an extra flavor boost.
- Refrigerate for at least 1 hour to allow the cheesecake balls to firm up.
- Enjoy your sweet creation, sharing with family or savoring them all to yourself!
