No-Bake Chocolate Peanut Biscuit Balls

No-Bake Chocolate Peanut Biscuit Balls

Ingredients

1/2 cup peanuts (70 g)
4 leftover biscuits (about 60 g, any type)
4 tbsp melted chocolate (60 g)
1/2 cup melted chocolate (120 g) for coating

Directions

Prepare the Mixture:
Place the peanuts in a food processor and pulse until they are coarsely ground.
Break the leftover biscuits into small pieces and add them to the food processor. Pulse until the mixture resembles fine crumbs and the peanuts are well combined.

Add the Chocolate:
Pour 4 tablespoons of melted chocolate into the peanut and biscuit mixture. Stir until everything is evenly coated and you have a sticky mixture that can be rolled into balls.

Shape the Balls:
Using your hands, scoop out portions of the mixture and roll them into balls about 1 inch in diameter. You should get about 10-12 balls depending on the size.

Coat with Chocolate:
Dip each ball into the remaining 1/2 cup of melted chocolate, ensuring it is fully coated. Place the coated balls on a lined baking sheet or tray.

Chill:
Place the tray in the refrigerator and chill the chocolate balls for about 30 minutes or until the chocolate has hardened.

Serve and Enjoy:
Once set, the chocolate balls are ready to enjoy. Store any leftovers in an airtight container in the refrigerator.

Serving Suggestions
Serve these chocolate balls as a quick dessert or snack with a cup of coffee or tea.
You can also add a sprinkle of sea salt on top before the chocolate sets for a sweet and salty twist.
