Pecan pie truffles

Ingredients

• 2 1/2 cups finely chopped pecans
• 1 cup graham cracker crumbs
• 1 cup brown sugar
• 1/2 tsp. salt
• 2 Tbsp. maple syrup
• 1/4 cup almond milk
• 1 tsp. vanilla
• 1 package of Baker's Semi-Sweet Baking Chocolate

Preparation

• In a food processor, grind up graham crackers until they are fine crumbs. Note that 1 packages of Keebler Graham crackers equals about a cup graham cracker crumbs.
• After they have been ground up, add in the remaining ingredients, mix until well combined. Using a plastic sandwich bag, squeeze the filling into balls about an inch in diameter. Place onto a baking sheet lined with wax paper and put it into the freezer for a 2-4 hours.
• Before removing them from the freezer, start melting three-quarters of the chocolate on the stove using a double broiler.
• Once it is melted well, take it off of the burner and add the remaining chocolate. This tempers the chocolate so it dries with a nice shiny finish once it dries. Dip the balls into the chocolate to coat them well, then put them back onto the cookie sheet to harden.
