Instructions:
1/ Prepare the Pecan Mixture:
In a large bowl, combine the graham cracker crumbs, chopped pecans, and brown sugar. Stir in the pure maple syrup and add enough melted butter (start with 6 tablespoons) until the mixture holds together when pressed. If needed, add a bit more butter.
2/ Form the Balls:
Scoop small portions of the mixture and roll them into 1-inch balls using your hands. Place the balls on a parchment-lined tray, ensuring they are evenly spaced. Chill the tray in the refrigerator or freezer for about one hour to firm up the balls.
3/ Coat in Chocolate:
Melt the chocolate almond bark according to the package instructions. Using a fork or dipping tool, dip each chilled pecan ball into the melted chocolate, allowing the excess to drip off before placing it back on the tray.
4/ Set the Chocolate:
Let the chocolate coating harden at room temperature or in the refrigerator until fully set.
6/ Serve and Enjoy:
These Pecan Pie Balls are now ready to be served. They make a delightful treat with their combination of sweet, nutty, and chocolatey flavors!
