When people are watching their weight, they tend to place restrictions on certain foods. I don't like to deem foods "forbidden" because I feel it often leads to failure. Instead, I like to create healthier, more waiste-friendly versions of the delicious treats we know and love!
For me, there is nothing better than the combination of chocolate and peanut butter. So recently, I decided I would come up with a revamped version of an original well known chocolate peanut butter desserts.
My standards for a guilt-free recipe is to make it with very little sugar, and even add some nutritional value to the mix! I also make a small batch so there is no temptation to over-eat them!
Vegan Peanut Butter Bon Bons
yields 6-7
3/4 Cup Natural Peanut Butter
1/4 Cup Oats
1 Tablespoon Agave Nectar (or sprinkle of stevia extract)
1 Tablespoon Nutritional Yeast
1/4 Bag (or less) of Vegan Chocolate Chips
A Few Splashes of Almond Milk
-
Method-
1. Place first four ingredients in a bowl (excluding almond milk and chocolate)
I used a jar of FRESH all natural peanut butter. It was nice and soft. If your PB is hard, you may want to melt it for a few seconds to soften it up.
2. Take a small cookie scooper and scoop PB balls onto a cookie sheet lined with parchment paper & place in the FREEZER for at least 30 minutes.
3. After you confirm they are nice and firm. Leave them in the freezer while you prepare your chocolate.
For the chocolate:
If you do not have a double boiler (like me), place a metal bowl on top of a pan of boiling water and fill with chocolate chips.
When they start melting add a few splashes of almond milk so the chocolate is not TOO thick.

Promptly after are seven steps that can serve as tips for your personal weight loss program. The first thing that one must understand is that losing weight and losing fat is not the same thing. Many weight loss programs have misled people into believing that it is the same, but most diets and weight loss plans only work by causing a person's body to reduce more muscle flesh and water than actual body fat, more help please visit The Fat Loss Factor. Remove from heat, stirring vigorously. Take your PB balls out of the freezer and carefully dip each in the chocolate to coat. Then place them back onto the wax paper & into the refrigerator.
Let the chocolate harden in the fridge for about a half hour or so.
They actually tasted best when they were softer at room temp. However, the chocolate does need to harden in the fridge.
Enjoy!!!
