Peanut Butter Chocolate Chip Bites

Step 3: Add the Dry Ingredients

Gradually add rolled oats to the peanut butter mixture. Stir until the oats are fully coated and the mixture starts to come together. It should be sticky but firm enough to shape.

Step 4: Fold in Chocolate Chips

Gently fold in mini chocolate chips. Make sure they are evenly distributed without melting them. This ensures each bite has a little chocolatey surprise.

Step 5: Shape the Bites

Using a spoon or small cookie scoop, portion the mixture into small balls, about 1 inch in diameter. Place each ball onto the prepared parchment-lined tray.

Step 6: Chill to Set

Transfer the tray to the refrigerator for at least 30 minutes. This allows the bites to firm up and hold their shape. If you’re in a hurry, you can also place them in the freezer for 10–15 minutes.

Step 7: Serve and Enjoy

Once chilled, your Peanut Butter Chocolate Chip Bites are ready to enjoy! Store any leftovers in an airtight container in the fridge for up to a week or in the freezer for longer storage.

Tips for Perfect Bites

1. Choose the right peanut butter: Natural peanut butter works beautifully, but ensure it’s well-stirred.
2. Sweetness balance: Adjust honey or syrup based on your taste preference.
3. Texture variation: Add chia seeds, flaxseeds, or crushed nuts to make them heartier.
4. No stickiness mess: Wet your hands slightly when rolling the bites to prevent sticking.
