    Putting together your peanut butter chocolate cereal bites

    • Start by adding all of the cereal ingredients to a large bowl and mixing them well.
    • Then roll them into balls using your hands.
    • Place them on a tray with some parchment paper or foil.
    • Now combine the chocolate chips and coconut oil and melt them in the microwave in 20 second increments, taking it out to stir in between.
    • Once all of the chocolate is melted, transfer it to a plastic baggie, snip off the end, and drizzle the chocolate all over your cereal bites.

      I have tried this recipe twice with 2 different recipes. They will not form into balls. Any ideas?

        Did you happen to use regular peanut butter? I made this recipe using natural peanut butter, which is much runnier in consistency than traditional peanut butter. If you used traditional peanut butter, it would not have enough liquid to hold the balls together. The difference between regular peanut butter and natural peanut butter is that regular peanut butter has sugar and oil in it, which allows it to be stiff and solid (less runny). Natural peanut butter only has peanuts and sometimes salt as the ingredients. It is much runnier and comes with a layer of oil floating on top, which has to be mixed into the peanut butter. I hope that makes sense!
