Acorn Chocolate Peanut Butter Treats

Acorn Chocolate Peanut Butter Treats

Well, I finally feel back to normal after our long road trip. I’ve gotten 13 loads of laundry done, returned our Christmas decorations to their bins in the garage, and cleaned the house. Phew! School was canceled due to the weather, so I had one more day with my kids! Most weeks, I try to make some type of homemade treat to stick in the kids’ lunch boxes each day. I saw these little acorn chocolate peanut butter treats online months ago and decided to re-create them. These treats are a tasty, fun, and easy project your kids will love to do with you.

How to Make Acorn Chocolate Peanut Butter Treats

Place 1/4 cup of chocolate chips in a glass bowl with the 1/4 teaspoon of coconut oil, then put into the microwave for 30 seconds. Remove and stir then place back into the microwave for 10 seconds. Remove and stir until completely melted. If needed, continue cooking for 10-second increments. Be careful not to overcook the chocolate!

Dip the bottom end of a wooden skewer into the melted chocolate and place a dot on the center of one side of the nutter butter bites. Place the unwrapped Hershey’s Kiss on top of the melted chocolate to “glue” it to the cookie. Place on a plate and continue with the remaining. Place into the refrigerator for 15 minutes to set.
