Categories     dessert

Time 1h

Yield 62 bites

Number Of Ingredients 8

3 cups rolled oats
1 1/2 cups crunchy peanut butter
1 cup honey
2/3 cup ground flaxseed
2 tablespoons coconut oil
1/2 teaspoon kosher salt
2 cups chopped semisweet chocolate
1/4 cup coconut oil

Steps:

  • Prepare a baking sheet with parchment and a baking rack.
  • For the bites: Add the oats, peanut butter, honey, flaxseed, coconut oil and salt to the bowl of a stand mixer fitted with a paddle attachment. This can also be done in a bowl with a spoon and a bit of elbow grease. Mix until completely combined.
  • Using a tablespoon-sized scoop, scoop the dough and roll it in your hands until it forms a ball. Repeat with the remainder of the mixture. As you work, place the balls on the prepared baking sheet. Freeze until firm, about 15 minutes.
  • For the chocolate shell: Add the chocolate and coconut oil to a bowl set over a pot of simmering water and allow it to melt and become smooth, about 3 minutes. Mix until smooth and set aside.
  • Remove the bites from the freezer. One at a time, drop one bite in the chocolate shell, remove it with a fork (or two) and return it to the same baking sheet. Repeat with the remaining bites. Return the baking sheet to the freezer to set the chocolate shell, about 10 minutes.
  • Sneak one now and transfer the remaining bites to a resealable plastic bag. Store in the freezer. When you are ready to enjoy them, allow them to thaw for 10 minutes or more at room temperature.

Time 1h20m

Yield 24 pieces

Number Of Ingredients 13

Cooking spray
1 stick unsalted butter, cut into pieces
4 ounces unsweetened chocolate, chopped
1 1/4 cups granulated sugar
1 teaspoon vanilla extract
1/4 teaspoon salt
2 large eggs
1/2 cup all-purpose flour
1/2 cup creamy peanut butter
1/4 cup plus 2 tablespoons confectioners' sugar
1/4 cup plus 2 tablespoons heavy cream
4 ounces semisweet chocolate, chopped
Coarse gold sugar, for decorating (optional)

Steps:

  • Preheat the oven to 350 degrees F. Line a 24-cup mini muffin pan with paper liners; coat with cooking spray. Melt the butter and unsweetened chocolate in a heatproof bowl set over a pot of simmering water, stirring, until smooth. Whisk in the granulated sugar, vanilla and salt until combined; remove the bowl from the pan. Stir in the eggs, one at a time. Add the flour and beat with a wooden spoon until the batter is shiny, about 1 minute.
  • Divide the batter among the prepared muffin cups. Bake until a toothpick inserted into the center comes out clean, about 17 minutes.
  • Meanwhile, make the filling: Whisk the peanut butter, 1/4 cup confectioners' sugar and 2 tablespoons heavy cream in another heatproof bowl set over the pot of simmering water until smooth, about 2 minutes. Transfer to a pastry bag fitted with a small round tip.
  • Let the brownies cool 5 minutes in the pan; make an indentation in the center of each with a teaspoon. Pipe the filling into the indentations.
  • Make the glaze: Combine the semisweet chocolate and 2 tablespoons cream in a heatproof bowl set over the simmering water. Let sit 3 minutes, then stir until smooth. Stir in the remaining 2 tablespoons confectioners' sugar. Slowly stir in the remaining 2 tablespoons cream until pourable. Spoon over the brownies; top with the coarse sugar.
