03 - Top with raisins or sprinkle with chopped peanuts for extra crunch, if desired.

# Expert Tips:

01 -
  • It takes less time to make than it does to find your keys.
  • The contrast between creamy and crisp is weirdly addictive.
  • You can dress it up or keep it bare bones depending on your mood.
  • It's one of those snacks that feels virtuous but tastes indulgent.
02 -
  • Wet celery will make the peanut butter slide right off, so dry each piece thoroughly before filling.
  • If you're prepping ahead, cover the platter tightly with plastic wrap and refrigerate, but don't add toppings until just before serving or they'll get soggy.
03 -
  • Use a small offset spatula to spread peanut butter smoothly without tearing the celery fibers.
  • Chill the celery sticks in ice water for ten minutes before filling to make them extra crisp and cold.
  • Press toppings gently into the peanut butter so they stick and don't roll off when you pick up the stick.
