Ingredients
Scale
- 1 cup graham cracker crumbs
- 2 cups pecan halves, finely chopped
- 1 cup brown sugar
- 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
- 6 to 8 tablespoons melted butter
- 1/2 cup pure maple syrup
- 24 ounces chocolate almond bark
Instructions
- Prepare the Mixture: In a large mixing bowl, combine the graham cracker crumbs, brown sugar, maple syrup, and finely chopped pecans. Add melted butter a little at a time until the mixture holds together and can be rolled into balls without falling apart.
- Shape the Balls: Roll the mixture into 1-inch sized balls and place them on a tray lined with parchment paper. Once all the dough is rolled, refrigerate or freeze the tray for one hour to firm up.
- Melt the Chocolate: Melt the chocolate almond bark according to the package directions.
- Coat the Balls: Dip each pecan pie ball into the melted chocolate and place them back on the parchment-lined tray. Allow the chocolate to harden completely.
- Enjoy: Once the chocolate is set, enjoy your delicious pecan pie balls!
