Not-So-Guilty Chocolate Peanut Butter Balls

Not-So Guilty Chocolate Peanut Butter Balls

I fondly recall making vacation treats with my mother. An addictive and extraordinarily smooth preferred, usually made for Christmas, have been classic peanut butter balls. No doubt a lot of us keep in mind those chocolate-lined treats with rice crispy cereal blanketed for delivered crunch and texture. I in no way should withstand peanut butter, and it often features in my no-bake treats and power bites.

The most effective problem with the traditional ones I enjoyed as a toddler is that they are lots too sugary for my tastes now. In addition to icing sugar, mother used no longer-so-natural peanut butter ? You recognize the sort that is not simply ground peanuts but rather a sugary unfold. I loved them anyway, however over the years I've looked for more healthy options to meet my sweet enamel.

I've stayed proper to the simplicity of the authentic recipe but ignored butter, and used natural peanut butter and sweetener. I even sold a box of "healthful" sprouted rice crisp cereal, even though I don't think it truly is surely vital ? I should not have felt responsible if I had used Rice Krispies, to inform the fact. But I dare say that this not-so-guilty version is even tastier and simply as addictive because the original, and it additionally takes place to be vegan friendly. Happily, if the urge to over-indulge is resisted, they may be proper for you too.

Note: Coconut flour is more absorbent than grain flours and in this recipe it's only required if the peanut butter used is somewhat runny. When stirred in, the mixture will thicken, so let it sit after adding a bit before adding more. The mixture before shaping should be moist, but neither too dry nor sticky.
