Here’s an easy, rich, No-Bake Pecan Pie Balls recipe — all the flavor of pecan pie rolled into bite-size treats, dipped in chocolate, and perfect for holidays or gifting!

🥧✨ No-Bake Pecan Pie Balls

Ingredients (Makes 20–24 balls)

1 ½ cups finely chopped pecans (toasted for best flavor)
1 cup graham cracker crumbs
1 cup powdered sugar
½ cup light corn syrup or maple syrup
½ tsp vanilla extract
¼ tsp salt
1–1 ½ cups chocolate chips or almond bark (for dipping)
1–2 tsp coconut oil (optional, for smoother melting)

🥣 Instructions

1. Toast the pecans (recommended)

Spread pecans on a baking sheet.
Toast at 350°F for 6–8 minutes, until fragrant.
Cool completely.

2. Make the filling

In a large bowl, mix:

chopped pecans
graham cracker crumbs
powdered sugar
salt

Stir in:

corn syrup (or maple)
vanilla extract

Mix until a sticky dough forms.
If too crumbly, add a little more syrup (1 tsp at a time).
If too sticky, add more graham crumbs.

3. Roll into balls

Scoop about 1 tablespoon of mixture at a time.
Roll into smooth balls.
Place on a parchment-lined tray.
Freeze 15–20 minutes to firm up for dipping.

4. Dip in chocolate

Melt chocolate chips + coconut oil in 20–30 second microwave bursts, stirring until smooth.
Dip each ball using a fork, tap to remove excess, and place back on parchment.

5. Set & serve

Let chocolate harden at room temperature, or chill 10 minutes in the fridge.
Store in an airtight container.
