Recipe type: Dessert
Serves: 36
Ingredients
2½ cups rolled oats
2 cups dried currants
½ cup dried cranberries
1 cup peanut butter
1 tablespoon pure vanilla extract
½ teaspoon ground cinnamon
2 teaspoons cocoa powder
Additional cocoa powder, for dusting/rollilng
Instructions
Add oats, currants, dried cranberries, peanut butter, vanilla, cinnamon, and 2 teaspoons cocoa powder into a food processor. Pulse until smooth. You may need to add about ¼ - ½ cup of warm water (gradually) to the mixture in order for it to turn to the proper texture for rolling.
Cover the bottom of a pie plate (or other dish) with cocoa powder.
Use a small cookie scoop (or teaspoon) to scoop a ball of the mixture. Roll the ball lightly between your hands, then gently roll it in the cocoa powder to coat.
Place on a plate or tray lined with wax paper. Continue scooping until all of the mixture is in ball shapes and are coated with cocoa powder.
Chill bites in the refrigerator for at least 30 minutes. Then, place into an airtight container until ready to serve. Keep chilled, or freeze for up to one week - enjoy!
