Ready Time

20 mins

Yields

7 servings

Ingredients

2 cups rolled oats
1 cup creamy peanut butter
1/2 cup confectioners’ sugar
1/4 cup graham cracker crumbs
1/4 cup chopped peanuts
1/4 cup chocolate chips (such as semisweet or milk chocolate)
1/4 teaspoon salt
1 tablespoon honey

Instructions

Combine the oats, confectioners’ sugar, graham cracker crumbs, and salt in a large mixing bowl.

Stir until well combined.

In a separate bowl, mix the peanut butter and honey until smooth and creamy.

Add the peanut butter mixture to the oat mixture and stir until a dough forms.

Fold in the chopped peanuts and chocolate chips until they’re evenly distributed throughout the dough.

Cover the dough and refrigerate for at least 30 minutes to set.

Once set, use a cookie scoop or your hands to shape the dough into small balls, about 1 inch in diameter.

You should end up with around 7 nuggets.

Place the nuggets on a baking sheet lined with parchment paper and refrigerate for at least 30 minutes to firm up.

Store your No Bake Bumpy Peanut Butter Nuggets in an airtight container in the refrigerator for up to a week.

Notes

Make sure to use creamy peanut butter for the best results, crunchy peanut butter can make the nuggets a bit too chunky.

Graham cracker crumbs add a nice texture, but you can substitute with crushed wafers or even cookie crumbs if you prefer.

Don’t overmix the dough, it should be slightly sticky but hold its shape.

Use a variety of chocolate chips for a fun mix of flavors, like milk chocolate, dark chocolate, or white chocolate.

If you find the dough too sticky, refrigerate it for 10-15 minutes to firm up before shaping into balls.

No Bake Bumpy Peanut Butter Nuggets make great snacks or treats for parties, you can also customize with add-ins like dried cranberries or chopped candy pieces.
