These edible peanut butter cookie dough bites are a healthy, energy-boosting snack. They’re a simple combination of peanuts, dates, and chocolate.

I like to have lots of healthy snacks on hand to help steer my family away from junk food. When there’s good food available in my kitchen, it makes it so my easier to make good snack choices.

These edible peanut butter cookie dough bites are just the thing I’m looking for when I want a healthy, energy-boosting snack. They’re a combination of peanuts, dates, and chocolate, and they come together in just a few minutes.

Edible Peanut Butter Cookie Dough Tips

These peanut butter energy balls come together quickly in a food processor or high-powered blender. I like to leave little bits of each ingredient in the final product, but you can process them to a smoother consistency if you prefer a truer cookie dough texture.

If the dough doesn’t come together easily, add water one teaspoon at a time and process until you get the right texture. It should bind together easily without being wet.

Store these treats in the refrigerator for several days, or freeze for later.
