Chocolate Peanuts & Peanut Butter Chips, Oh My!
Yesterday we celebrated National Peanut Day, but we aren’t ready to stop now! Let’s keep the party going into the weekend with some of our favorite peanutty treats.
Chocolate Peanuts
These tasty morsels let you be indulgent without the guilt. We cover freshly roasted peanuts in sugar-free chocolate for the perfect sweet-and-salty snack. Serve chocolate peanuts in a bowl as a game-day appetizer or sprinkle over ice cream or yogurt for dessert.
Peanut Butter Chips
Give your favorite cookies or brownies an extra kick of flavor with a generous helping of peanut butter chips instead of (or in addition to!) chocolate chips. They are also great in sundaes or smoothies, or simply plain by the handful.
Cajun Peanuts
Make sure your taste buds are awake with these Cajun-spiced roasted peanuts (watch out, they’re hot!). One bite will have you tapping your toes to a funky Zydeco beat.
Peanut Flour
This flour is gluten-free, high in protein and ideal for baking. Replace regular flour with peanut flour the next time you make chocolate cupcakes, and enjoy the subtle nutty flavor it adds.
Peanuts are delicious and bursting with nutritional value. They are a good source of antioxidants, which improve cardiovascular health, plus they also protect against risk of stroke, cancer, obesity and Alzheimer’s disease.
Happy National Peanut Day to all!
