The Essentials

Cheez It crackers (2 cups):

• These savory squares provide a unique crunchy base that pairs beautifully with the sweetness of the other ingredients.

Creamy peanut butter (½ cup):

• Acts as the glue that holds everything together while adding a rich nutty flavor. For added depth, you can opt for natural or honey-roasted varieties.

Chocolate chips (1 cup):

• Choose milk dark, or even white chocolate depending on your flavor preference. You’ll melt these to coat the bites in a decadent layer of sweetness.

Powdered sugar (2 tablespoons):

• Optional but adding a light dusting can elevate both the appearance and flavor of the final treat.

Optional Toppings
