• 2–3 tbsp PB2 powder

• 2 tbsp maple syrup or honey

• 1 tsp vanilla extract

• Pinch of salt

• Mini chocolate chips (optional)

Crunchy Chocolate Shell

• 1¼ cups dark chocolate chips

• 1 tbsp coconut oil

• 1 plain lightly salted rice cake, crushed

Directions

1. In a bowl, mix together oats, peanut butter, PB2 powder, maple syrup, vanilla extract, and salt until a soft dough forms. If needed, add 1–2 tsp milk to help the mixture come together.

2. Fold in mini chocolate chips if using.

3. Roll mixture into small balls and place onto a parchment-lined tray or plate.

4. Freeze for 15–20 minutes until firm.

5. Crush the rice cake into small crunchy flakes using your hands or a ziplock bag.

6. Melt chocolate chips and coconut oil together until smooth. Stir in the crushed rice cake pieces.

7. Spoon or coat the peanut butter balls with the crunchy chocolate mixture and place back onto parchment paper.

8. Sprinkle a few extra rice cake crumbs on top before the chocolate hardens for extra crunch and texture.

9. Freeze for about 45–60 minutes until set.
