- ½ cup unsalted butter at room temperature
- 1 cup creamy peanut butter
- ½ cup powdered sugar
- 1 cup graham cracker crumbs
- ¼ cup powdered sugar for rolling
In a medium bowl, mix together the peanut butter and softened butter until smooth and creamy.
Add the powdered sugar and graham cracker crumbs, then stir until the mixture forms a thick paste.
Cover the bowl and refrigerate for at least 1 hour to firm up.
Once chilled, use a tablespoon or small cookie scoop to portion the dough. Roll into smooth balls with your hands.
Roll each ball in powdered sugar until fully coated.
Place the finished snowballs into mini cupcake liners for serving.
Store in an airtight container in the refrigerator until ready to enjoy.
Use Creamy Peanut Butter: Avoid natural peanut butter that separates, as it can make the mixture too oily.
Chill Before Rolling: Letting the mixture rest in the fridge makes the dough firm enough to roll easily.
Uniform Size: A cookie scoop ensures evenly sized balls that look neat and uniform.
Presentation Tip: Place each cookie in a mini cupcake liner to make them easy to serve and extra pretty for parties.
