    Pro Tips

    • You can make this with regular peanut butter as well, but may not freeze as solid as this version. Simply replace the powdered peanut butter with ¼ cup of natural (the runny kind) peanut butter.
    • Drizzle over frozen strawberries for a cool pb & j!
    • Make a chocolate version with hot cocoa mix!

    FAQs

    I don't have powdered peanut butter. Can I make this with regular peanut butter?

    Yes! It may not be as solid, but can still be done. Just swap out the powdered peanut butter for ¼ cup of natural (the runny kind) peanut butter, and treat just the same.

    How do I store this?

    Store any leftovers in the refrigerator, and microwave for 10 seconds at a time until it is liquid-y.

    How much does this recipe make?

    This recipe makes about ⅓ cup of magic shell, or about 6 tablespoons worth. You can certainly double if you want more on hand!

    Money-Saving Tips for this Peanut Butter Magic Shell Recipe:

    • Shop around. I find that Trader Joe's has the best deal on coconut oil, but browse your local grocery stores to see which has the best price.
    • Buy online. Good ol' Amazon is a good place to look for powdered peanut butter if you can't find it in your local grocery store. Discount stores such as TJ Maxx or Marshalls are also a good place to look.

      I have got to try this. I love peanut butter. Something else I found for my vegan diet is Sunvella. It's a cooking oil, and it's paleo approved. Absolutely Love it. Can't wait to read more of your recipes.
