My mom used to make these - not sure where she got the recipe. Now I make them for my own family and they are a favorite. I've always followed the recipe as is, but I'm sure you could experiment with different flavors of ice cream. We have tried different toppings but the caramel seems to be the perfect compliment.

16 balls (change servings and units)

Ingredients

1/2 gallon vanilla ice cream
1 cup crushed graham cracker
1/4 cup peanut butter
2 tablespoons sugar
1/4 teaspoon cinnamon
caramel ice cream topping

Directions

1
Mix graham cracker crumbs, peanut butter, sugar & cinnamon.
2
Make balls out of the ice cream and roll in dry mixture.
3
Freeze.
4
Serve with caramel topping.
5
-To make the balls: Cut a square 1/2 gallon of ice cream into 4 equal slices. Then cut each slice into quarters. Mold into a ball with your hands and by rolling it in the dry mixture. Only work with 1-2 "slices" at a time or the rest will melt too much while sitting out. It will also melt quicker if you take too much time to form the balls.

Tis dessert was totally delightful! I used chocolate graham crackers. The peanut butter in the crust was so tasty! (A little messy, but well worth it) Next time I will get some friends together and do them assembly line style, as I want to make lots! It is so easy to pop one out of a freezer bag, we no longer like to scoop out icecream from the carton. Wouldn't this be good with nuts and whipped cream? Thankyou for sharing this recipe!
