3-Ingredient Chocolate and Peanut Butter Bites

Ingredients

• 130 g Unsweetened applesauce
• 100 g PB2 powdered peanut butter (The video also describes it as protein-rich powdered peanut butter.)
• 70 g 70% dark chocolate (Melted for dipping the bites.)

Steps

1. 1

   Place the unsweetened applesauce and powdered peanut butter in a bowl. Mix until you obtain a uniform, moldable dough with a consistency suitable for forming balls.

2. 2

   Divide the dough into 12 equal portions and shape each portion into a ball, rolling them between your hands until compact and smooth.

3. 3

   Melt the 70% dark chocolate in the microwave in short 15-20 second intervals, stirring between each interval, or melt it in a double boiler. Stop when it is smooth and completely melted; avoid overheating it.

4. 4

   Dip each ball in the melted chocolate, turning it to coat it completely. Remove it with a fork and let the excess chocolate drip off.

5. 5

   Place the coated bites on a tray or plate lined with parchment paper.

6. 6

   Refrigerate for about 10 minutes, or until the chocolate coating has hardened, then serve.
