Choco-Nut Fudge Bites

I found this delish recipe when browsing Pinterest over the weekend.

Obviously I chose them for the chocolate. But the no-bake aspect is right up my alley and it helped that I already had all of the ingredients in the pantry.

My no-bake bites were inspired by the bars from HERE.

I originally made them as bars but they are pretty darn sweet – so I cut up the rest as bites in an attempt to eat less sugar. Unfortunately I still care to eat several bites at a time…

Ingredients:

  • 1 cup peanut butter
  • 1/2 cup agave nectar
  • 1/2 cup  coconut oil
  • 2 cups oats
  • 1 1/4 cups dark chocolate pieces
  • 1 tsp vanilla extract

Directions:

Heat peanut butter, agave nectar, and coconut oil in a saucepan with the burner on medium-low and stir until combined.

Remove from heat. Add dark chocolate pieces, oats, and vanilla extract and combine until melted.

Pour into pan and cool in the fridge until hardened.

Cut into bars (you will need a big ole’ knife when it’s set) and enjoy!

Keep cool until ready to serve and store in the fridge.
