Chocolate-Covered Peanut Butter Bites

I've professed my love for chocolate and peanut butter before, but I have to say this particular treat takes it to the next level. A healthier version of a Reese's Cup, these little peanut butter balls are pure bliss.

Ingredients

1 cup organic peanut butter
1/4 cup pure maple syrup or honey
2 tablespoons coconut flour
1/2 cup quinoa crispies
1/2 cup dark chocolate
1 tablespoon coconut oil

Instructions

Mix together peanut butter and maple syrup until fully combined and smooth. The mixture should thin out a little bit.
Add coconut flour and quinoa crispies. Stir until peanut butter begins to thicken and turns into a dough.
Roll 1 tablespoon of dough into small balls and place on a parchment lined baking sheet. Repeat until no dough remains. Set aside.
Melt the chocolate and coconut oil over a double boiler until completely smooth. Using a fork, dip the peanut butter balls into the chocolate and return them to the baking sheet. Sprinkle with additional quinoa crispies for decoration.
Place in the fridge for 1 - 2 hours, until chocolate has hardened.
And of course, enjoy!
