These little guys are chocolate peanut butter energy bites. Dates seem to be the trend right now, or so it seems. They might be old news and I just think it’s current. I’m hip like that. Referring to myself as hip drives my point home nicely I think.
As part of a swag bag, I received a package of Medjool dates. Perfect time to get on board!
I used natural peanut butter only because I had it in the fridge. Normal peanut butter works just fine too.
They will be hidden in the back of the fridge with a “Hands off” sticky note attached.
