How to Make Peanut Butter Chocolate Grapes
Step 1: Prep the Grapes
Wash and thoroughly dry the grapes. If using toothpicks or skewers, insert them into each grape.
Step 2: Dip in Peanut Butter
In a small bowl, warm peanut butter slightly if needed. Roll each grape in peanut butter until evenly coated.
Step 3: Coat with Crushed Peanuts
Roll the peanut butter-coated grapes in crushed peanuts, pressing gently to adhere. Place on a parchment-lined tray and freeze for 10 minutes.
Step 4: Melt the Chocolate
In a microwave-safe bowl, melt chocolate chips and coconut oil in 20-second intervals, stirring between each until smooth.
Step 5: Dip in Chocolate
Using a fork or skewer, dip each peanut-coated grape into the melted chocolate. Let excess chocolate drip off before placing back on the parchment-lined tray.
Step 6: Set and Serve
Refrigerate for at least 15 minutes until the chocolate hardens. Enjoy immediately or store in an airtight container in the fridge.
