- Mix graham cracker crumbs, sugar and melted butter, spread evenly into the bottom of a 13x9 pan; bake 8-10 minutes at 350°F.

- Bake 12-15 minutes at 350°F.
- While coconut mixture is baking, melt chocolate chips and peanut butter in a heavy pan.
- Pour melted chips on top of baked coconut/graham cracker mixture; dust top lightly with finely ground graham cracker crumbs.
- Refrigerate until bars are hardened. Let sit at room temperature for awhile then you can cut into small pieces.
- Warning, this is not WW friendly! LOL.
Tips:
- Use high-quality semisweet chocolate for the best flavor.
- Be sure to temper the chocolate properly to avoid it becoming grainy.
- If you don't have a candy thermometer, you can test the temperature of the chocolate by dropping a small amount into a glass of cold water. If the chocolate hardens immediately, it is ready to use.
- Work quickly when dipping the coconut balls in the chocolate, as the chocolate will start to set quickly.
- If you want to make the coconut balls ahead of time, you can store them in the freezer for up to 2 weeks. Just be sure to thaw them completely before dipping them in the chocolate.
