Gooey Peanut Butter Bites Recipes

Steps:

• Mix all ingredients in a bowl until well-combined.
• Cover with plastic wrap and chill in the refrigerator for at least 30 minutes.
• Once done chilling, roll into approximately 1 inch (2.5 cm) balls. (Cover hands in a light layer of butter or oil to facilitate rolling and avoid getting sticky hands.)
• Lay out a thin layer of oats and chocolate chips on a cutting board or work surface and roll the balls in the mixture. Finish off by rolling each ball between your hands to pack in the oats and chocolate chips.
• Enjoy!

Steps:

• Heat oven to 350°F. In food processor, place cookies and melted butter. Cover; process using quick on-and-off motions until coarse damp crumbs form. Reserve 1/2 cup mixture for top. Press remaining crumb mixture in bottom of ungreased 13x9-inch pan.
• In large bowl, beat cake mix, peanut butter and eggs with electric mixer on medium speed until well combined. Press mixture over crust in pan. Drizzle with sweetened condensed milk. Sprinkle peanut butter pieces, peanut butter chips and remaining crumb mixture evenly over top.
• Bake 30 to 35 minutes or until edges are light golden brown and center is set. Cool completely, about 1 hour, before cutting. Cut into 5 rows by 3 rows.

Steps:

• In a covered boiler, cook carrots in water until soft. Remove from heat and mash.
• Stir in pumpkin, honey, and cream of tartar.
• Cook uncovered over low to medium heat to soft ball (235F or 115C). Stir.
• occasionally early in the cooking, but as the candy thickens, watch closely to avoid burning on the bottom. Depending on how much moisture is in your vegetables, this may take a couple of hours. Be patient - stick with a gentle boil, to keep from burning the sugar, and resist the temptation to stop early.
• Meanwhile, prepare the pita pockets by spreading a layer of peanut butter inside, on both sides. At a minimum, smoothly cover the bread surface. If you like peanut butter, a thicker layer is fine.
• When the candy reaches soft ball, remove from heat. Add peanuts and beat with a wooden spoon until smooth and slightly glossy.
• Spread the pumpkin candy inside each pita. It may be easier to do this by mashing the pita from the outside, rather than spreading with a knife.
• Refrigerate overnight.
• With a sharp knife, cut each half circle into four ooey, gooey, chewy wedges.
• (Notes on ingredients: You can substitute fresh or frozen pumpkin puree for the canned pumpkin. You can also use other winter squash, but the sweetness and the color may be less intense. Any style of peanut butter will work, but a natural (not whipped or oil-added) type will result in more consistent layers in the finished dessert. Whole or refined wheat pitas are fine.).

Steps:

• Set oven to 350 degrees.
• Line cookie sheets with parchment paper or foil (lightly grease the foil).
• In a mixing bowl, cream the butter and shortenintg together for about 3 minutes.
• Add in peanut butter and sugars; blend well.
• Add in eggs and vanilla; beat for about 2 minutes until fluffy.
• Sift together flour, baking soda, baking powder and salt.
• Add/mix in the flour mixture to the creamed mixture.
• Mix in the chocolate chips and the chopped Reese's Cups.
• For the filling: in a food processor, combine all the filling ingredients, process for about 2-3 minutes to make a paste-like texture that holds together.
• Form the cookie dough into large round balls (about the size of a golf ball).
• Press down and make a indentation in the middle (enough to hold the filling).
• Spoon about 1 tablespoon of filling in the middle, and press down lightly with back of a spoon.
• You may also mix in the gooey filling into the cookie dough for a marbleized effect.
• Continue with the balance of the dough and filling.
• Bake for 12-15 minutes.
• Cool on baking sheet before removing to a wire rack.
