I love to throw parties for friends and family. Sometimes they get a little crazy and we have to tell Grandma to stop dancing on the table. But, when she gets a hold of these almond coco-nutty buddies, it’s really hard to get her to stop. With JUSTIN’S® Classic Almond Butter packed into every bite, it’s hard to blame her. Get down from there, Grandma. You’re going to break something.
½ cup JUSTIN’S® Classic Almond Butter
8 cups Corn-Squares Cereal (or any variety— rice, wheat)
1 cup Dark Chocolate Chips, divided
¾ cup Powdered Sugar
1 cup Shredded Coconut
2 cups Almonds
1. Place the cereal in a large bowl, set aside.
2. Combine the JUSTIN’S® Classic Almond Butter and ½ cup of dark chocolate chips in a large saucepan over medium heat and stir until melted.
3. Pour the melted almond butter mixture over the cereal and gently fold until cereal is completely coated.
4. Place the sugar in a large zip top plastic bag, then fill with the coated cereal.
5. Close the bag and shake lightly.
6. Spread the mix onto wax paper to dry.
7. Toss together the cereal, remaining chocolate chips, coconut, and almonds.
I know what you’re thinking as you stare at this luscious recipe photo. Is it a cookie? Is it a pie? Is it a giant nut butter cup?! And the truth is, it’s all of those in one. The ultimate Nut Butter Cup Cookie Pie perfected by me, Justin. You can use any JUSTIN’S® nut butter cups on this recipe and top it with your favorite ice cream. Trust me when I say, this recipe is better than anything you could get at a fancy restaurant.
You know what’s a great word? Truffle. It’s kind of silly, but fun to say—and even more fun to eat!

They’re great for parties, gatherings, or just a fun little treat. Enjoy!
