How to Make Beehive Snacks Peanut Butter Honey Balls

  1. In a medium bowl, combine peanut butter, honey, and vanilla extract. Mix thoroughly until well combined.
  2. Gradually add rolled oats, stirring until a dough forms. The mixture should be firm enough to roll into balls.
  3. Roll the mixture into 1-inch balls.
  4. Place the balls on a baking sheet lined with parchment paper.
  5. If desired, melt your choice of chocolate (dark, milk, or white) according to package instructions. Dip, drizzle, or sprinkle the chocolate over the peanut butter balls.
  6. Refrigerate for at least 30 minutes to allow the chocolate to set and the balls to firm up.
  7. Enjoy your delicious and easy Beehive Snacks!

Chef's Tip for Extra Flavor

Want to unlock deeper, more complex flavors? Try toasting your whole spices before grinding them, or blooming ground spices in a little warm oil to enhance their aroma. Deglazing your pan with a bit of stock, wine, or even water after browning ingredients can capture those tasty caramelized bits, adding richness to your dish.
