Monster Cookie Energy Balls

These little suckers are so, so good.  Monster Cookie Energy Balls are power-packed and flavor-packed.  The peanut butter and honey combine in a soft and sweet base for the slightly chewy oats and little chunks of chocolate and candy-coated heaven.

Ingredients

  • 5 cups old-fashioned oats
  • 2 cups creamy peanut butter
  • 1 cup honey
  • 2 tsp vanilla extract
  • 10 oz mini chocolate chips
  • 10 oz mini M&M candies

Instructions

  • In a large bowl, combine the peanut butter, honey and vanilla until evenly mixed. I use my mixer for this but it isn't necessary.
  • Mix the oats in until everything is evenly distributed.
  • Stir in the chocolate chips and M&M's. You can do this by hand or with the mixer on low speed.
  • Use an ice cream or cookie scoop to measure out mounds that are about 2 or 3 tablespoons full.  Roll the mounds into balls with your hands and place them on the parchment-lined baking sheet.
  • Chill the energy balls for about 30 minutes in the refrigerator.  Enjoy these chilled or at room temperature.
