In a large mixing bowl, combine the creamy peanut butter, powdered sugar, and crushed graham crackers. Mix well until the ingredients come together into a firm, dough-like consistency.
Scoop about 1 tablespoon of the peanut butter mixture and roll it into a smooth ball using your hands. Repeat until all the mixture is used up. You should have approximately 18 balls.
Place the peanut butter balls onto a baking sheet lined with parchment paper and chill them in the refrigerator for 15 minutes to firm up.
Meanwhile, melt the semi-sweet chocolate chips and butter together in a microwave-safe bowl. Heat in 20-second intervals, stirring between intervals, until the mixture is smooth and glossy.
Remove the chilled peanut butter balls from the fridge. Using a fork or a skewer, dip each ball into the melted chocolate to coat it completely. Let the excess chocolate drip off before placing the coated balls back on the parchment-lined sheet.
Sprinkle a tiny pinch of sea salt on top of each ball, if desired, for a touch of saltiness to balance the sweetness.
Allow the chocolate coating to set at room temperature or place the tray back in the fridge for 10-15 minutes until firm.
Serve immediately or store in an airtight container in the refrigerator for up to 1 week.
