You will love how easy it is to satisfy your sweet tooth with these little treats. They come together quickly and use just a handful of wholesome ingredients, making them a great snack to keep in your freezer for whenever you need a quick pick me up.

Since these do not rely on dairy or eggs, they have a surprisingly light texture. For the best result, make sure your peanut butter is smooth and natural so it blends perfectly with the other ingredients.

Ingredients

  • 1 cup creamy natural peanut butter
  • 1/2 cup pure maple syrup
  • 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
  • 1/4 cup unsweetened cocoa powder

Instructions

  1. 1

    In a medium mixing bowl, stir together the peanut butter, maple syrup, and vanilla extract until the mixture is smooth and well combined.

  2. 2

    Sift in the cocoa powder and continue mixing until the batter is uniform and no dry streaks remain.

  3. 3

    Line a small tray with parchment paper.

  4. 4

    Scoop small spoonfuls of the mixture onto the tray to create bite sized portions.

  5. 5

    Place the tray in the freezer for at least two hours until the bites are firm.

  6. 6

    Store any leftovers in a sealed container in the freezer.

💡 Tips

These bites taste best when eaten straight from the freezer. If you have leftovers, keep them in an airtight container for up to two weeks. You can also drizzle a little melted dark chocolate on top before freezing if you want an extra decadent crunch.
