Description
Peanut Butter Bugle Bites are irresistible snacks made with creamy peanut butter-filled Bugles and dipped in rich chocolate. Perfect for parties or a sweet treat!
Ingredients
Scale
- 1 (7.5-ounce) bag Original Bugles corn snacks
- 1 cup creamy peanut butter
- 1 tablespoon unsalted butter, softened
- 1 cup powdered sugar
- 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
- Pinch of salt (optional)
- 2 cups milk chocolate chips
- 2 teaspoons coconut oil or vegetable shortening (optional)
- Crushed roasted peanuts (optional topping)
- Chocolate sprinkles (optional topping)
- Holiday sprinkles (optional topping)
- Flaky sea salt (optional topping)
Instructions
- In a medium mixing bowl, combine the creamy peanut butter, softened butter, powdered sugar, vanilla extract, and the optional pinch of salt. Mix until the filling is smooth, thick, and well combined. If the mixture feels too soft to pipe, refrigerate it for about 15 minutes until it firms up slightly.
- Transfer the peanut butter filling to a piping bag or a zip-top bag with one corner snipped off. Carefully pipe the filling into each Original Bugle, filling almost to the top but leaving just enough room for the chocolate coating. Arrange the filled Bugles on a parchment-lined baking sheet or tray.
- Place the milk chocolate chips and coconut oil (if using) into a microwave-safe bowl. Microwave in 20-second intervals, stirring thoroughly after each interval, until the chocolate is completely melted, smooth, and glossy.
- Hold each Bugle by the pointed end and dip only the filled opening into the melted chocolate. Allow the excess chocolate to drip back into the bowl before placing the Bugle back onto the parchment paper with the chocolate side facing up. If adding toppings, sprinkle them on immediately before the chocolate begins to set.
- Refrigerate the Bugle bites for 20 to 30 minutes, or until the chocolate is completely firm.
Notes
- For a classic appearance, leave the chocolate plain without any toppings.
- These can be served chilled or allowed to sit at room temperature for a few minutes before serving.
