Ingredients
- 2 cups creamy natural peanut butter
- ½ cup vegan butter, softened
- 3 ¼ cups powdered sugar
- 2 cups dairy-free dark chocolate chips
- 2 teaspoons coconut oil
Instructions
- Line a large baking sheet with parchment paper.

- Store in an airtight container in the refrigerator for up to 10 days or freeze for up to 2 months.
