Description
This 2-ingredient homemade Chocolate Peanut Butter is made right in your food processor or blender! Perfect for spreading on toast, upgrading your PB&J, drizzling on fruit, or eating right off the spoon.
Ingredients
- 4 cups peanuts, roasted and salted
- 2 cups (12 oz.) milk or dark chocolate, melted
Instructions
- Place the peanuts in the food processor or high-powered blender (I use my Vitamix) for about 10 minutes or until the mixture is smooth and drippy. Scrape down every 2-3 minutes or as necessary.
- Once the mixture is at the right consistency, add in the melted chocolate. Process until combined. Place in jars.
Notes
If you prefer to salt/roast your own peanuts, feel free to do so. Roast the peanuts yourself by roasting them in a 350 degree oven in a single layer on a sheet pan for 30-35 minutes. Salt them to taste and proceed with recipe.
This looks truly amazing. I would eat it for breakfast, lunch, and dinner…if only I had a food processor.
This is mouthwatering!! Two of my favorite things together!! Yum yum! Will have to try this out :)
I adore chocolate and peanut butter…homemade deliciousness!!
Yum! I bet this would be tasty stirred into my morning oats :)
Nice, you inspired me to make my own chocolate hazelnut spread. Thanks!
I always add a little oil (peanut oil) or olive oil to the mixture in the food processor. This gives it a base and it slides well on my bread.
I make my own that’s really thick and creamy with unsweetened cacao powder, natural peanut butter, stevia or raw honey and warm water. And I’m sure you’d be able to make this in a blender with the right blades.
