Ingredients:  
2 1/2 c pecans, toasted and chopped
1 c graham crackers, crushed
1 c brown sugar, firmly packed
1/2 tsp salt
2 Tbsp. Maple syrup
1/4 c bourbon, brandy or spiced rum

7 oz. Dark chocolate bark
1 tsp coarse sea salt (optional)
Directions:
Directions:
Combine first four ingredients in large bowl. Add maple syrup, bourbon, and vanilla. Use your hands to make sure all the ingredients are mixed thoroughly.
Form balls by scooping a tablespoon size amount of mixture and rolling in hands to form balls. Place balls on cookie sheet lined with parchment paper.
Tip: After all balls are made, roll balls again with slightly water damped hands. This will make balls smooth before dipping in chocolate.
Place balls on cookie sheet in freezer for 2 hrs.
Melt chocolate bark in a double boiler or microwave per directions on package.
Dip frozen balls into chocolate, then place on the parchment paper lined cookie sheet.
Optional: Sprinkle a few grains of course sea salt on balls before the chocolate sets.
These freeze well. Take out of freezer and let sit for 15 minutes. They are also good frozen!
