Ingredients

1 cup graham cracker crumbs
2 cups finely chopped pecans
1 teaspoon vanilla extract
½ cup brown sugar
½ teaspoon salt
½ cup pure maple syrup
¼ cup unsalted butter melted
15-20 oz dark chocolate melting wafers

Instructions

Mix together the graham cracker crumbs, pecans, brown sugar, vanilla, maple syrup, and salt.
Add in the melted butter until combined.
Line a baking sheet with parchment paper.
Use your hands or a mini cookie scoop to shape the mixture into balls and place on the baking sheet (you should get around 30 balls).
Freeze the pecan pie balls for one hour.
Melt the melting wafers. I started with 10 oz and ended up needing around 15 oz, or 1 ½ bags.
Dip each pecan truffle into the melted chocolate and place back on the baking sheet.
Refrigerate until the chocolate is set.

Notes

Store leftovers in an airtight container in the fridge for up to a week, or in the freezer for 1-2 months. Allow the pecan balls to thaw for several minutes before eating.
