Chocolate Strawberry Energy Bites

I love to have easy, healthy snacks on hand especially when I'm craving something sweet and these Chocolate Strawberry Energy Bites totally hit the spot! They are so creamy and delicious and taste like a chocolately, peanut butter and strawberry jam sandwich. They come together in no time at all and store really well in the fridge or freezer.

These are great to have during the holiday season when you need something a little healthier than candy, cookies, pie, etc. These peanut butter bites and these coconut almond bites are also fantastic!
