Notes

Additions and Substitutions
Instead of honey, you can use a maple syrup or agave nectar for plant-based sweetness. Both have a wonderful sticky texture that works perfectly in these bites.
You can use other types of chocolate too. You can try white chocolate chips or a different chocolate candy for new flavors and textures.
Instead of peanut butter, try making these with almond butter, sunbutter, or another nut butter instead.
