Peanut Butter Snowballs

These Peanut Butter Snowballs are one of my favorite recipes for peanut butter. Peanut butter, butter, powdered sugar, graham cracker crumbs, maple syrup and salt whisked together until well combined, formed into balls, dipped in melted white chocolate and coconut oil mixture, topped with sprinkles, then refrigerated until set. Top with sprinkles, then refrigerate until set, about 10 minutes. Coming out flavorful and pretty cute, these balls drive all the kids crazy.

Notes

These Peanut Butter Snowballs are a no-bake candy-style treat made from a simple peanut butter mixture coated in white chocolate. The base combines peanut butter, melted butter, powdered sugar, graham cracker crumbs, maple syrup, and salt, which are mixed until smooth and easy to shape. Once rolled into small balls, they’re dipped in melted white chocolate mixed with coconut oil and finished with sprinkles before chilling.

The recipe works well because the powdered sugar and graham cracker crumbs give the peanut butter mixture enough structure to hold its shape without baking. Maple syrup adds a mild sweetness and helps keep the centers soft. Mixing coconut oil into the white chocolate creates a smoother coating that sets cleanly in the refrigerator without becoming too brittle. Chilling briefly after coating helps the chocolate firm up quickly.

This is a practical recipe for home cooks since it requires no oven and minimal equipment. The snowballs can be made ahead and stored chilled until serving. They hold their shape well and are easy to portion for parties or snacks. Small adjustments, such as changing the sprinkles or skipping them entirely, won’t affect the overall method or texture.
