These chocolate peanut butter acorns are the cousin of everyone’s favorite buckeyes. These acorns are made with a smooth peanut butter ball, a chocolate cap, and a walnut stem. (Easy as can be and cute too!)
Just wanted to jump on here real fast and share these chocolate peanut butter acorns with you. These were a happy accident from earlier this week.
I was making a new peanut butter chocolate treat for Christmas (can’t wait for December to share them with you), and I had some leftover peanut butter balls. I wanted to dip them in chocolate for us to enjoy now, but chocolate in the bowl was too low to dip them.
So I just spooned some on top. As I was finishing, I noticed how much they looked like little acorns. I grabbed some walnut pieces from the freezer and gave them all a little stem.
I had couple of recipe fails that day, so it made me happy that something worked out. These would be cute for kids for Thanksgiving dessert. Or adults too, because who doesn’t like chocolate and peanut butter?
Here are some fun turkey pretzel bites that also look fun for kids from Suburban Simplicity
Or if you’re looking for a grown up treat, you can’t beat these Pecan Pie Truffles from Glitter and Goulash.
