Chocolate Peanut Butter Energy Balls




I brought home a jar of Nutz Dark Chocolate Peanut Spread from the 2013 Auckland Food Show and used some of it to create these little balls that are packed full of goodness. They take no time at all to make and would be good for a breakfast on the run or just for a treat at any time .

Any good toasted muesli would do for this recipe but I use my home made muesli made with cinnamon, raisins and sunflower seeds. You can find it at

or my Anzac muesli made with golden syrup at:

Ingredients:

1/2 cup of toasted muesli
2 tablespoons of runny honey
2 tablespoons of Nutz chocolate peanut butter spread
finely grated rind of 1/2 orange
juice of half an orange
a few drops of vanilla essence

Method:

Mix the runny honey and chocolate spread together. You may need to zap them for a few seconds in the microwave to soften the peanut spread.
Stir this mixture into all the other ingredients
Make into walnut sized balls
Roll in desicated coconut
