Indulgent chocolate peanut butter cookie dough bites offer a sinful twist on classic desserts. Sweet, creamy morsels melt in your mouth, promising pure bliss with each irresistible bite.
Ingredients
Scale
- ½ cup mini chocolate chips
- 1 cup creamy peanut butter
- ¾ cup oat flour (or finely ground oats)
- ¼ cup honey or maple syrup
- 1 tsp vanilla extract
- 1 pinch salt
- Optional: melted chocolate for drizzling or dipping (237 ml)
Instructions
- Mixing Base: Whisk peanut butter, honey, and vanilla in a medium bowl until completely integrated and silky smooth.
- Forming Dough: Incorporate oat flour and salt into the mixture, stirring until a cohesive, moldable dough develops.
- Adding Chocolate Elements: Gently fold mini chocolate chips throughout the dough, distributing them evenly for consistent flavor.
- Shaping Bites: Create uniform bite-sized spheres using a tablespoon measure, carefully placing each on a parchment-lined tray.
- Chilling and Setting: Refrigerate the dough balls for a minimum of 20 minutes to solidify their structure and enhance texture.
- Optional Chocolate Enhancement: For indulgent variation, drizzle or coat bites in melted chocolate before final chilling.
- Storage and Preservation: Maintain bites in refrigerator up to one week or transfer to freezer for extended preservation, ensuring sealed container to maintain freshness.
Notes
- Use fresh, fine-ground oat flour for the smoothest texture and best binding in the cookie dough bites.
- Refrigeration is crucial to help the bites set and develop a firmer, more cohesive structure, so don’t skip the chilling step.
- Adjust honey or maple syrup quantity based on personal preference, keeping in mind that it impacts both flavor and consistency.
- Replace peanut butter with sunflower seed butter or almond butter for nut-free or alternative dietary options.
