  • 1 cup brown sugar
  • 1 tsp vanilla extract
  • 6 to 8 tbsp melted butter
  • ½ cup pure maple syrup

Instructions:

FIRST STEP: Preparing the Filling

  1. In a large mixing bowl, combine the graham cracker crumbs, brown sugar, pure maple syrup, chopped pecans, and vanilla extract.
  2. Gradually add melted butter and mix until the mixture comes together and can be rolled into 1-inch-sized balls without falling apart.

SECOND STEP: Shaping the Balls

  1. Shape the mixture into 1-inch-sized balls and place them on a tray lined with parchment paper.
  2. Once all the balls are formed, refrigerate or freeze the tray for one hour to allow them to firm up.

FOURTH STEP: Dipping the Balls

  1. Dip each pecan pie ball into the melted chocolate, ensuring they are evenly coated.
  2. Place the chocolate-coated balls back onto the parchment-covered tray.
  3. Allow the chocolate to harden, which may take some time.
