Ingredients

2 ½ cups graham cracker crumbs
1 big bag flaked coconut
12 oz. crunchy peanut butter
3 sticks soft butter
1 lb confectioner’s sugar
1 block paraffin wax
3 (6 oz) packages butterscotch chips

Steps

In a large bowl, combine the graham cracker crumbs, flaked coconut, crunchy peanut butter, soft butter, and confectioner’s sugar.
Mix all ingredients together until well combined.
Shape the mixture into small, bite-sized balls.
Place the shaped balls on a tray and refrigerate for at least 2 hours, or preferably overnight, to allow them to set firmly.
When ready to dip, prepare a double boiler. Melt the 1 block of paraffin wax and 3 (6 oz) packages of butterscotch chips together in the top of the double boiler until smooth.
Dip each chilled ball into the melted butterscotch mixture, ensuring it is fully coated.
Place the dipped balls on waxed paper or parchment paper to dry.
Allow the dipped balls to set for approximately 5 minutes until the coating is firm.
