Ingredients
- 1 cup natural peanut butter (smooth or crunchy)
- 1/4 cup coconut flour
- 1/4 cup powdered erythritol or preferred sweetener
- 1/4 teaspoon salt
- 1/4 cup unsweetened cocoa powder
- 1/4 cup coconut oil (melted)
- 1/2 cup sugar-free dark chocolate chips
- 1 tablespoon unsweetened almond milk (optional for thinning chocolate)
Instructions
- Prepare the Base: In a mixing bowl, combine the peanut butter, coconut flour, powdered erythritol, and salt. Mix until smooth and well combined.
- Form the Bars: Press the mixture into a lined 8×8-inch baking dish, spreading it evenly. Place in the freezer for about 30 minutes to firm up.
- Melt the Chocolate: In a small saucepan over low heat, melt the sugar-free dark chocolate chips with the coconut oil until smooth. Stir in almond milk if you prefer a thinner consistency.
- Coat the Bars: Remove the peanut butter base from the freezer and cut it into bars. Dip each bar into the melted chocolate, ensuring they’re fully coated. Place them on parchment paper to set.
- Chill: Once all bars are coated, refrigerate them for at least 30 minutes, or until the chocolate has hardened. Enjoy your delicious keto-friendly treat!
