Chocolate Peanut Butter Energy Balls

Steps

1. 1In a large bowl, stir together the oats, cocoa powder, salt, and peanuts.
2. 2Place the honey and peanut butter in a microwave safe bowl and heat at 50% power, stirring occasionally, until the mixture is melted and smooth.
3. 3Stir in the vanilla and chocolate chips, continuing to stir until the chocolate is melted and the mixture is smooth.
4. 4Add this mixture to the oat mixture and stir until everything is evenly combined.
5. 5Form 1 tablespoon sized balls, and place them on a wax paper lined baking sheet. I like to use a 1 tablespoon sized cookie scoop to portion out the oat mixture, and then roll each portion into a tight ball in my hands.
6. 6Chill the energy balls on the baking sheet for at least one hour.
7. 7Store the balls in an airtight container in the fridge for up to 2 weeks.
