Decadent Dark Chocolate Peanut Butter Energy Bites are the perfect snack to keep you energized throughout the day. These bite-sized treats combine the rich flavors of dark chocolate and peanut butter for a delicious, nutritious snack that's easy to make and even easier to enjoy!
Ingredients:
Instructions:
- Sift in the dry cocoa powder into the honey and peanut butter mixture. Stir until well combined.
- Add the vanilla extract and mix thoroughly.
- Gradually add the water, one tablespoon at a time, mixing after each addition until the mixture reaches a smooth, consistent texture. This helps in creating a blendable mixture.
- Fold in the oats, ensuring they are evenly distributed throughout the mixture.
- Next, gently fold in the chocolate candies.
- Place the mixture in the refrigerator for about 20-30 minutes. This will make it easier to form into bites.
- After the chilling time, take the mixture out of the refrigerator.
- Using your hands, scoop out small amounts and roll them into bite-sized balls (approximately 1-inch in diameter).
- Place the energy bites onto a baking sheet or plate lined with parchment paper.
- Once all the bites are formed, you can place them back in the refrigerator for another 10-15 minutes to set completely.
- Enjoy your decadent dark chocolate peanut butter energy bites as a quick snack or energy boost!
Tips:
- Use natural peanut butter without added sugars for a healthier option.
- Chill the mixture for a few minutes before forming into bites to make handling easier.
- Store the energy bites in an airtight container in the refrigerator to keep them fresh for up to a week.
- Feel free to experiment by adding other ingredients like chopped nuts, dried fruits, or coconut flakes for extra texture and flavor.
- If the mixture is too sticky to handle, add a bit more oats until it reaches the desired consistency.
Indulge in the rich, flavourful goodness of Decadent Dark Chocolate Peanut Butter Energy Bites anytime you need a quick energy boost. With their perfect blend of oats, peanut butter, honey, and cocoa, these bites will quickly become your go-to snack for busy days or post-workout fuel.
