When I was a kid, one of my favorite snacks was fruit. But, then I started making nut butter and it all turned around. Yep, you better believe it. I started making crispy rice treats and snazzing them up with all kinds of goodies: dark chocolate, sea salt, and of course, any of your favorite JUSTIN’S® Nut Butters. Feel like a kid again with my nut butter rice crispy treats with dark chocolate & sea salt.

Spicy Peanut Sauce used to dip dumplings being held with brown wooden chopsticks on a white background

I can’t get enough of this Spicy Peanut Sauce. Fresh ginger, garlic, and of course, JUSTIN’S® Honey Peanut Butter. It’s so good I could drink it right from the bowl. Of course, I’d never do that. Maybe.

Chocolate Dipped Cookie Dough Stuffed Grahams stacked on a white background with chocolate syrup drizzle and coconut shavings
Cookies are great, but cookie dough is better. This “cookie dough” takes an egg-less approach to cookie dough and stuffs it between two crunchy graham crackers and dunks it in melted chocolate. Chocolate-Dipped “Cookie Dough” Stuffed Grahams are made with JUSTIN’S® Maple Almond Butter and are a great treat for the entire family.  
Chocolate Hazelnut and Almond Dessert Hummus on a clear glass with strawberries in the background

I was recently informed that eating JUSTIN’S® Chocolate Hazelnut and Almond Butter straight out of the jar with a spoon is “not ideal for sharing.” Bold of them to assume I wanted to share. If I did want to share, I would whip up this Chocolate Hazelnut and Almond Dessert Hummus. It’s easy to make, delicious, and perfect for a crowd.
