What is your favorite chocolate candy? Mine is definitely Reese's Peanut Butter Cups. So when I was looking for Halloween inspired recipes I found peanut butter Halloween pumpkins. But then I started to think about what I could do with that recipe to somewhat assemble a quick easy treat to have on hand.
I decided to make that pumpkin recipe I found as is, which is basically just mixing a few ingredients to make the peanut butter mixture sweeter and a thicker consistency. Then I put the peanut butter in the bottom of a bread pan, froze that for about 20 minutes, topped it with melted chocolate and froze that for another 20-30 minutes. Cut into the bite-size or GIANT size pieces you want, and enjoy!
This recipe is so easy and the most time spent on this recipe is the freeze time! If you make these Chocolate Peanut Butter Bites , please let me know! Leave a comment or tag me on Instagram @thathangrygurl.
