Peanut Butter Bites

These peanut butter dessert bites are the perfect combination of salty and sweet. If you like the taste of Nutter Butter cookies but hate the ingredients (partially hydrogenated soybean oil, hydrogenated rapeseed oil, hydrogenated cottonseed oil, high fructose corn syrup, artificial flavor, just to name a few...), we suggest you try these! Consider it a recipe do-over.

Bonus: they're NO BAKE and take less than 10 whole minutes to make (and they're gluten free for the gluten intolerant peeps out there)! You'll never have to settle with Nutter Butters again with this recipe on hand.
