I TOTALLY forgot about this idea! I made it up weeks ago and didn't think about it again until last night when I was craving something sweet. Using an egg roll wrapper (I was planning on won ton but they were all out) a handful of chocolate chips and some healthy peanut or almond butter you get crispy, chewy, chocolaty treat in minutes!
I had a few taste testers for this one. I happen to make them when the in-laws were in town. They were fans although, the husband, of course, wasn't impressed. The toddler? He'll never refuse anything dessert-y. If there's chocolate he's pretty happy, just like Momma. 🙂
I'm writing up the idea to make 2 servings of 2 Sticks each. You could of course double or triple. I also kept the amount of peanut butter to a minimum, just using a light smear. If you aren't watching calories as closely you may want to bump it up a tiny-bit.
These would be easy to make ahead for a party or play-date and throw in the oven for a warm dessert.
Ingredients
- 2 egg roll wrappers (normally in produce section)
- 1 tablespoon peanut or almond butter
- 1 tablespoon chocolate chip
Instructions
Preheat oven 400 degrees.
Cut the wrappers in half so you have 4 rectangles.
Smear each rectangle with peanut butter.
Line chips (around 6) evenly spaces along one edge of the wrapper.
Roll, folding over the chips.
Seal the end by rubbing a bit of water on the edge.
Place each roll on a aluminum lined cookie sheet sprayed with non-stick spray. Bake for 10 minutes.
The outside will get browned, the inside will stay chewy and the chocolate will melt. Sprinkle with a bit of powdered sugar or stevia for presentation. 🙂

I found your site by accident but am soooo thankful I did! I am on day 19 of my weight loss journey. I have been using myfitnesspal.com and Lysa Terkeurst's book "Made to Crave." They are GREAT tools but I have been born and raised cooking in the south with lots of comfort food and pre-packaged items; so I am learning a new way of cooking and education myself on fresh foods and herbs. Thank you for your recipes!

They would last quite a while. I mean each ingredient in there has long storage life. I'd warm them back in the oven when you are eating the leftovers though. You want that warm melted choc. 🙂

I plan on making these for dessert tonight. Can't wait! 🙂 I was thinking about trying a few with some Nutello & maybe a couple crushed almonds for a variety. YUM!
Quick question though....
Can you make up several and store them? If so, how long do you think they would be good for?
Stephanie
Thank you for the idea. I will try to make some. may be thinner stick..

Jenna - I had the chocolate WAAAAY back when. I think I wrote a review about it too but it I lost it in the crash. It's wasn't bad but it wasn't good either. I haven't bought it since, if that tells ya anything. lol
Jenna
Looks real good. Dont end up eating alot of peanut butter though cause its so high in points. I have been meaning to ask you and this post reminded me! There is a condiment company called "walden farms" that boosts no calories, fat etc in their condiments. and they have peanut spread and chocolate dip, carmel dip, jams,syrups, alfredo sauce, marshmellow dip etc. I am wondering how can they do that? Whats your take on that? It's waldenfarms.com....take a look and let me know what you think, sounds too good to be true
Liz Rosenbaum
Wow. That sounds delicious! I am SO going to try those! 🙂 Thanks for the idea!

Ok, I needed to make these today. We are snow and flooded in (yes, I live near Fargo). I happened to have egg roll wrappers, but no chocolate chips. I did have ricotta and cinnamon chips (made by Hershey's - like choc. chips). They were great! I've been craving cinnamon rolls, and these toally hit the spot. My husband was home for lunch and tried a couple and liked them. His suggestion: cream cheese not ricotta. He's all about richness. We'll try that tonight for dessert.

Thanks for the quick response!!
The Better N Peanut Butter is a little sweet tasting but shows less sugar grams per serving.?. I really like it, but I never liked PB until a couple of years ago - so I may not be the best opinion.
I was thinking of using it with a Tbsp or so of the Lite Hershey's to thin just a bit to be able to spread it better and add a thin strip of Banana then bake them up for breakfast on the go..???... I may try it and see how it turns out. Anyway, thank you for all you do!!

Ty - There is a point difference only because of size. Other then that the brand I buy is identical. 1 egg roll is about 2 won tons wrappers.
As for Better N PB.. nope.. haven't tried it yet.
Hope that helps!
Ty
These look/sound amazing!! Just wondering, I am new to the egg roll/wonton wraps, is there a point differnce between the two? I guess I could look that info up myself but I since I was posting....
And I was also wondering if you had tried "Better N' Peanut Butter" and what your opinion was if you had?
Thanks!!!

Will comeback for more.

Jennifer - not sure if you have a Trader Joe's, but I buy their raw almond butter. SO yummy! It's the only kind It's tried.
Jennifer
these look great! i did mine with nuetella in them.
I was wondering if you could recommend a almond butter. I am so afraid to go to the store and spend the money on it. *the jars of almond butter at the grocery store are at least 12 bucks.* so you can see why i am so hesitant.
Priyanka
I have to get the egg roll wrapper to try this. I am amazed at how easy and simple this is!
ttfn300

Sandy
They look wonderful,and I can't wait to give them a try.
Jillian
YUM!!! Double YUM- I can't wait to get some eggroll wrappers and try these!!
Dani
Love this idea... I'm definitely going to try it!! May even have to do a post on it! If I do, I'll keep you posted...
And congrats on the 9-miler... that's awseome!
Liz
Wow Roni these look delicious! And I have those wrappers on hand because I wanted to make your Chocolate Ricotta rolls! Maybe I will try them both out on the family tonight!
