A Sweet & Decadent Snack
Indulge in the perfect mix of creamy peanut butter and rich chocolate, all wrapped up in a crispy quesadilla shell. This Chocolate Chip Peanut Butter Quesadilla is sweet, satisfying, and a perfect snack for chocolate and peanut butter lovers!
🍞 Ingredients:
- 2 low-carb tortillas (mini or regular size)
- 2 tbsp powdered peanut butter (adjust to taste)
- 1-2 tbsp water (to mix with peanut butter powder)
- 1 tbsp mini chocolate chips (sugar-free if preferred)
- 1 tsp vanilla extract (optional)
- 1-2 tbsp sugar-free sweetener (optional, for extra sweetness)
- Olive oil or cooking spray (for pan-frying)
🍴 Instructions:
- Prepare the peanut butter filling:
In a small bowl, mix the powdered peanut butter with water until smooth and spreadable. If desired, add a dash of vanilla extract and sweetener for extra flavor. - Assemble the quesadilla:
Spread the peanut butter mixture evenly over one side of a low-carb tortilla. Sprinkle the mini chocolate chips over the peanut butter layer, and place the second tortilla on top, pressing gently to stick. - Cook the quesadilla:
Heat a non-stick skillet over medium heat. Lightly spray with olive oil or cooking spray. Place the quesadilla in the skillet and cook for 2-3 minutes per side, or until both sides are golden brown and the chocolate chips begin to melt. - Slice and serve:
Once cooked, remove from the skillet and allow it to cool for a minute before slicing into wedges. Serve immediately.
