In a large bowl or inwards the bowl of a stand upwardly upward mixer, compaction together the peanut butter, butter, inwards add-on to confectioner's carbohydrate until mucilage forms.

My thoughts:

For some reason, Peanut Butter Boppers, a snack rarely discussed that disappeared from the shelves inwards the 1980s has haunted me for decades. Growing upward we did non eat much inwards the way of packaged snack nutrient at all. My mom packed our lunches but 99% of it was homemade inwards add-on to fifty-fifty the things like chips were from a larger purse inwards add-on to repackaged--no prepacked convenience foods for us. For some reason, Boppers must select made it into the cart because I tin post service away soundless yell back how they gustatory modality today. I select a genuinely distinct retention of looking at them on the shelf when I was or so vii inwards add-on to being told we couldn't learn a box inwards add-on to in addition to and then they disappeared from the shelf forever. I select this matter where I can't genuinely picture anything beyond the vaguest outlines inwards add-on to i of the genuinely few things I tin post service away multifariousness of icon is a row of Boppers on a grocery store shelf therefore it made quite an impression! Why I don't know. They were genuinely tasty though!

When the meshwork became a matter I tried to await them upward to encounter if they were soundless regionally available or discontinued entirely. I kept thinking they were called Bonkers which didn't construct experience every chip Bonkers was another candy of the '80s that is at demonstrate defunct inwards add-on to inwards my search, I realized that what I was thinking of was called Boppers. I works life this commercial which explains some of my confusion--in it they nib well-nigh "going crazy, going boppers" over Peanut Butter Boppers. Who uses "boppers" inwards add-on to non "bonkers" to intend nutty is beyond me but at to the lowest grade that solved i mystery. Boppers also made a cameo inwards The Lost Boys, they were on the shelf the boys were non allowed to touching on inwards the fridge along amongst the root beer inwards add-on to Oreos. So someone out at that location was eating them also me!

Basically, Boppers were a dryish peanut butter stick (think the filling of a Reese's Peanut Butter Cup) rolled inwards chocolate inwards add-on to in addition to then crisped rice cereal inwards add-on to chips. Apparently, they were made by times granola-famous Nature Valley but I don't recall them being marketed every chip whatever multifariousness of wellness nutrient inwards add-on to let's live on honest, these are a treat.

Since I select e'er loved nighttime chocolate, I used nighttime melting chocolate inwards add-on to semisweet chips (which I experience were inwards used inwards the originals every chip well) but if y'all lot select more than of a sugariness tooth, y'all lot tin post service away run milk melting chocolate and/or chips. Remember to run actual melting chocolate though therefore it sets upward properly. Alternatively, y'all lot tin post service away melt inwards add-on to temper your receive chocolate but this is much easier inwards add-on to for this, simply every chip tasty. Also, run mini chips to coat, regular chips are simply also large inwards add-on to testament tumble off.

They genuinely practise gustatory modality like the Boppers I yell back (of course, I was well-nigh vi back inwards add-on to in addition to then therefore it has been a while) but maybe slightly amend thank y'all to using amend quality ingredients. Satisfyingly peanut buttery, slightly crunchy inwards add-on to chocolatey. I don't intend they are bringing these back to the shelves anytime soon but y'all lot tin post service away enjoy these today!


Now if I could simply figure out how to construct Chocolate Mint Bubblicious, another mid-80s era discontinued favorite, I'll live on all set.
