Prep Time

45 minutes

Ingredients

1/2 Cup Butter
1 1/2 Cup Graham Crackers (1 sleeve)
2 Cups Powdered Sugar
1 1/2 Cups Crunchy Peanut Butter
3/4 Cup Chopped Almonds
1 Bag Semi-Sweet Chocolate Chips
1/2 to 1 tsp Montana Mex Avocado Oil if needed to spread chocolate
1-2 TBSP Montana Mex Sweet Seasoning for sprinkling

Directions

In a food processor, crumble graham crackers until there are no lumps of larger crackers left. Place in a large bowl and set aside.
Next crumble almonds in the food processor using pulsing action (so as not to create almond butter). Add to the bowl with graham cracker crumbles.
Sift 2 Cups powdered sugar into the bowl with graham cracker and nut crumbles. Mix ingredients together until thoroughly blended.
Fold in melted butter and crunchy peanut butter until mixture becomes moldable and capable of holding shape.
Prepare a cooling rack or baking sheet with parchment paper. Using a melon baller or spoon portion out truffles, rolling between your hands to form approximately 1 inch balls. Place balls on your prepared sheet or rack and allow to set for roughly 20 minutes, preferably in the refrigerator.
Once the truffles have chilled, melt the chocolate chips* until smooth, adding Avocado Oil if needed to thin chocolate. Individually dip the truffles in the melted chocolate and set back on your sheet or rack. Before the chocolate cools & hardens, sprinkle each truffle with a pinch of Montana Mex Sweet Seasoning to finish.

Enjoy!

Note:

*Use a double boiler system to melt chocolate: Fill saucepan with an inch of water and set on stove top at low heat. Nest a mixing bowl on top of the sauce pan making sure the water is not touching the bottom of the mixing bowl. Place chocolate into mixing bowl and stir until melted and smooth.
