Steps
In the bowl of an electric mixer fitted with the paddle attachment, add all ingredients except for the chocolate chips. Mix on low speed until mixture is well combined. Stir in chocolate chips.
Roll mixture into 2-tablespoon sized smooth balls and place on a parchment-lined sheet pan. Place in the refrigerator for 30 minutes or enjoy right away. Once the bites have set, transfer them to an air-tight container and store in the refrigerator for up to 2 weeks.

Anneliese on 2026-08-24 (2 stars): The flavor was good, but these could absolute not hold a shape for the life of them. Even after chilling and cutting into bars, the bars could not be picked up. I used all organic ingredients--maybe the peanut butter was the issue? I double checked all of my measurements, and even added a little less honey than suggested. Whatever it was, the stickiness made these very unpleasant to work with.
Emily on 2026-08-25 (5 stars): 1000/10! I’ve made them to have for breakfast for the last 6 months while BF and I’m still loving them.
Myranda Castanon on 2026-08-31 (5 stars): LOVE! I add chia seeds and cinnamon 😋 and I also use mini morsels for the chocolate chips. I make these every week. They are my everyday breakfast treat. Thank you for creating this recipe!!
