When it comes to shaping your Peanut Butter Bliss Bites, consistency is key to achieving that perfect snack texture and appearance. Start by ensuring your hands are clean and slightly damp to prevent the mixture from sticking. Scoop out a tablespoon of the mixture and roll it into a ball between your palms. For uniformity, consider using a small cookie scoop or measuring spoon. This will help you create bites that are roughly the same size, making them visually appealing and easy to serve.

Ingredients
  

1 cup natural peanut butter (choose creamy for smooth texture or crunchy for added bite)

½ cup honey or maple syrup (sweetener of your choice)

1 tsp pure vanilla extract

1½ cups rolled oats (old-fashioned or quick-cooking)

½ cup dark chocolate chips (or substitute with milk chocolate if preferred)

¼ cup ground flaxseed (optional, for an extra nutritional boost)

A pinch of salt to enhance flavor

½ cup shredded coconut (optional, for a chewy texture)

Instructions
 

Combine Base Ingredients: In a large mixing bowl, add the natural peanut butter, honey (or maple syrup), and pure vanilla extract. Using a spatula or wooden spoon, stir the mixture until it is smooth and well-combined, ensuring no lumps remain.

    Incorporate Dry Ingredients: Gradually add the rolled oats and the ground flaxseed (if you’re using it), along with a pinch of salt. Fold these dry ingredients into the peanut butter mixture until everything is fully incorporated and the mixture is thick and dough-like.

      Add Chocolate Chips: Carefully fold in the dark chocolate chips and shredded coconut (if included). Make sure the chocolate and coconut are evenly distributed throughout the mixture, giving each bite a delightful surprise.

        Shape the Bites: With clean or slightly dampened hands (this will prevent sticking), scoop out small amounts of the dough and roll them into balls approximately 1 inch in diameter. Place each bite on a parchment-lined baking sheet or a plate.

          Chill the Bites: Once all the bites are shaped, transfer the baking sheet or plate to the refrigerator. Allow them to chill for about 30 minutes, which will help them firm up and maintain their shape.

            Serve or Store: After chilling, your Peanut Butter Bliss Bites are ready to be savored! You can enjoy them right away or keep them in an airtight container in the refrigerator for up to a week. For longer storage, freeze the bites and enjoy them as needed.
