Ingredients

Scale

Main Ingredients

  • 1 cup peanut butter (or allergy friendly substitute)
  • 2/3 cup cocoa powder
  • 1/3 cup sweetener of choice (such as sugar, maple syrup, or honey)
  • 1/4 tsp salt (optional)

Optional Add-ins

  • Mini chocolate chips
  • Chia seeds
  • 2 tbsp coconut oil or melted chocolate

Instructions

  1. Prepare the Ingredients: Measure out all the ingredients and have your peanut butter, cocoa powder, sweetener, and salt ready. If using optional add-ins like coconut oil or melted chocolate, have those prepared as well.
  2. Blend the Mixture: Add the peanut butter, cocoa powder, sweetener, and salt into a food processor. Blend the ingredients together, scraping down the sides as needed, until a smooth, dough-like consistency is achieved. It is recommended to use a food processor for the best texture.
  3. Add Optional Mix-ins: If you choose to add mini chocolate chips or chia seeds, you can fold them in after blending or pulse them briefly during blending to distribute evenly.
  4. Form the Brownie Bites: Once the dough is ready, roll it into small bite-sized balls with your hands.
  5. Store and Serve: These brownie bites can be stored at room temperature, refrigerated to keep them firmer, or frozen for longer storage. Enjoy as a quick and delicious snack or dessert.

Notes

  • Using a food processor instead of a blender yields a smoother, more consistent texture.
  • Adjust sweetness according to your preference by varying the amount or type of sweetener.
  • Optional coconut oil or melted chocolate can add richness and help with firmness.
  • Store brownie bites in an airtight container to maintain freshness.
  • These bites are best enjoyed within a week if refrigerated, or up to 3 months if frozen.
