These no-bake Voodoo Balls are a delightfully rich and festive treat combining creamy peanut butter, chocolate, and a hint of vanilla.

Ingredients

Scale

Main Ingredients

  • 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)

Decoration (Optional)

  • Sprinkles (for extra decoration)
  • Candy eyes (for a spooky touch)

Instructions

  1. 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 these ingredients thoroughly until smooth and evenly blended.
  2. Adjust Mixture Consistency: Stir the mixture gently. If you find it too dry or crumbly, add a little more peanut butter to help it come together into a pliable dough.
  3. Shape the Voodoo Balls: Using your hands, scoop out small portions of the mixture and roll them into approximately 1-inch diameter balls. Ensure they are compact and hold their shape well.
  4. Prepare the Baking Sheet: Lay a sheet of parchment paper or a silicone baking mat on a baking sheet, and place the shaped balls on it, spaced evenly.
  5. Melt the Chocolate Coating: In a microwave-safe bowl, combine the semi-sweet chocolate chips and coconut oil. Heat in 30-second intervals, stirring between each, until the mixture is completely melted, smooth, and glossy.
  6. Coat the Voodoo Balls: Dip each peanut butter ball into the melted chocolate, making sure they are fully covered. Use a fork or toothpick to lift and gently shake off excess chocolate.
  7. Set the Coated Balls: Return the chocolate-coated balls to the prepared baking sheet. If desired, add sprinkles or candy eyes at this stage for decoration.
  8. Chill and Harden: Place the baking sheet in the refrigerator for 30 to 60 minutes, or until the chocolate coating has fully set and hardened.
  9. Serve and Enjoy: Once chilled and firm, serve these delightful Voodoo Balls as a festive, no-bake treat. Keep refrigerated until ready to eat.

Notes

  • This recipe requires no baking, making it quick and perfect for last-minute treats.
  • You can use either creamy or chunky peanut butter depending on your texture preference.
  • If the mixture feels too sticky, chill it for 15 minutes before shaping.
  • Coconut oil in the chocolate helps achieve a smooth, glossy coating and prevents the chocolate from hardening too brittle.
  • Decorations such as candy eyes or sprinkles add a festive Halloween touch but can be omitted if preferred.
  • Store the Voodoo Balls in an airtight container in the refrigerator for up to one week.
