Ingredients

Scale

Dry Ingredients

  • 1 cup graham cracker crumbs
  • 1/2 cup unsweetened cocoa powder
  • 1/2 cup powdered sugar

Creamy Ingredients

  • 1/2 cup creamy peanut butter
  • 1/2 cup softened cream cheese
  • 1 teaspoon vanilla extract

Add-ins

  • 1/4 cup mini chocolate chips

Optional Topping

  • Whipped cream

Instructions

  1. Prepare the Base: In a large mixing bowl, combine graham cracker crumbs, cocoa powder, and powdered sugar. Mix until all ingredients are well incorporated and the mixture has an even color and texture.
  2. Add the Creamy Ingredients: Add peanut butter, softened cream cheese, and vanilla extract to the dry mixture. Blend thoroughly until the mixture becomes smooth, creamy, and uniform in consistency.
  3. Fold in Chocolate Chips: Gently fold in the mini chocolate chips with a spatula to evenly distribute them throughout the mixture while preventing them from melting or breaking.
  4. Shape the Treats: Using your hands or a scoop, form the mixture into small balls or logs, about 1 inch in size. Place them evenly spaced on a lined baking sheet or tray to prevent sticking.
  5. Chill: Cover the tray with plastic wrap and refrigerate for at least 1 hour to allow the treats to firm up and the flavors to meld together.
  6. Serve: Once chilled, serve the moose farts cold, optionally topped with whipped cream for extra creaminess and visual appeal.

Notes

  • Nut-Free Option: Replace peanut butter with sunflower seed butter to make it safe for those with nut allergies.
  • Dairy-Free Option: Use a dairy-free cream cheese substitute to accommodate lactose intolerance or vegan diets.
  • Gluten-Free Option: Use gluten-free graham cracker crumbs to ensure the recipe is gluten-free friendly.
  • Store leftovers in an airtight container in the refrigerator for up to 5 days.
  • For a sweeter variation, increase the powdered sugar slightly or drizzle with melted chocolate before chilling.
