Ingredients

Scale

Graham Crackers

  • 1 sleeve (9 sheets) graham crackers, broken in half

Peanut Butter Filling

  • ¾ cup creamy peanut butter
  • ¼ cup butter, softened
  • 1 cup powdered sugar
  • 1 teaspoon vanilla extract

Chocolate Coating

  • 1 cup semi-sweet or milk chocolate chips
  • 1 tablespoon coconut oil or butter (for smooth melting)

Instructions

  1. Make the Peanut Butter Filling: In a medium bowl, mix the peanut butter, softened butter, powdered sugar, and vanilla extract together until smooth and creamy. The texture should be thick yet spreadable to hold well between the crackers.
  2. Assemble the Graham Sandwiches: Break each graham cracker sheet in half to create squares. Spread about one tablespoon of the peanut butter mixture onto one half of each cracker, then top with another cracker half to make a sandwich. Arrange the assembled sandwiches on a parchment-lined tray.
  3. Melt the Chocolate: Place the chocolate chips and coconut oil or butter in a microwave-safe bowl. Heat in 20-second intervals, stirring well between each until the chocolate is fully melted and silky smooth.
  4. Dip or Drizzle: Dip each peanut butter sandwich halfway into the melted chocolate or use a spoon to drizzle chocolate over the tops as desired. Place the coated sandwiches back onto the parchment-lined tray; optionally sprinkle with sea salt for added flavor contrast.
  5. Chill Until Set: Refrigerate the tray for about 30 minutes or until the chocolate hardens completely. Serve immediately or store in an airtight container for up to one week.

Notes

  • Use creamy peanut butter for the smoothest filling texture.
  • Allow the butter to soften at room temperature to blend easily with peanut butter and sugar.
  • For a dairy-free version, substitute butter with coconut oil and use dairy-free chocolate chips.
  • Sprinkling sea salt over the chocolate adds a lovely sweet-salty contrast.
  • Store the finished Buckeye Graham Crackers in the refrigerator to keep the chocolate firm and fresh.
