Ingredients
- 1 cup creamy peanut butter
- 0.5 cup granulated sugar
- 0.5 cup brown sugar, packed
- 2 tablespoons unsalted butter
- 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
- 1.5 cups rolled oats
- 0.5 cup mini chocolate chips
- 0.25 teaspoon salt
Directions
Step 1
In a medium-sized mixing bowl, combine peanut butter, granulated sugar, brown sugar, and unsalted butter. Use a spatula or a wooden spoon to mix until the mixture is smooth and creamy.
Step 2
Stir in the vanilla extract and salt until fully incorporated.
Step 3
Fold in the rolled oats gradually, about half a cup at a time, until the mixture is sticky but holds together when pressed.
Step 4
Gently mix in the mini chocolate chips, being careful not to overmix as the chocolate chips can start to melt from the warmth of your hands or mixing tool.
Step 5
Line a baking sheet with parchment paper or wax paper.
Step 6
Using a tablespoon or small cookie scoop, portion out the mixture and roll into 1-inch balls. Place each ball on the prepared baking sheet, leaving a little space in between.
Step 7
Refrigerate the peanut butter balls for at least 30 minutes to firm up.
Step 8
Serve the Peanut Butter Quickies directly from the fridge or at room temperature. Store leftovers in an airtight container in the refrigerator for up to 1 week.
