Ingredients:
- 1 1/2 cups peanut butter powder (PB2 or similar)
- 1/2 cup unsweetened applesauce
- 90 grams Lily’s Dark Chocolate Chips
Instructions:
- Make the peanut butter mixture: In a bowl, mix the peanut butter powder and applesauce together. Stir until you have a thick, creamy paste that holds together when pinched.
- Form the balls: Roll 1 tablespoon of the peanut butter mixture at a time into small balls (you should get about 20 balls total). Place them on a plate or tray and chill in the refrigerator for a bit.
- Melt the chocolate: In a small glass bowl, microwave the Lily’s dark chocolate chips for 30 to 60 seconds, stirring halfway through until smooth and fully melted.
- Dip the balls: Once the peanut butter balls are chilled, dip each one into the melted chocolate, making sure it’s fully coated. Return the chocolate-covered balls to the refrigerator to chill.
- Enjoy: After chilling, your delicious, homemade peanut butter cups are ready! Try to stick to just one (though it might be tough!) 😁🤤
