Did you know November is National Peanut butter month?! When a new month starts, my friend blogs about that months important dates to remember- and this one is a biggie! So, in honor of the very special nut…this post.
I found these on Pinterest. They taste fabulous! Like you’re sneaking a treat, but they’re not that bad for you! Score! So yes, try it, I know you will love them. Recipe at end.
I have fun ideas of putting in mint chips, M&M’s or no chocolate at all! Super yummy! I didn’t have honey, it’s a hot commodity in our home. So we used maple syrup instead so we call them ‘Peanut Butter Maple Bites.
Step one: mix all ingredients together
Step two: allow your kids to sneak bites of the ‘dough’ and make faces.
I absolutely LOVE having Emma in the kitchen with me. I want to instill a love of creating. However, she refuses to eat what she makes. Weird right? Fortunately, she’ll eat these.
Third: Roll into balls:
Refrigerate for about 1 hr., then tada!
They were Emma’s ‘treat’ if she ate her lunch today. She did. 🙂
Hope you have a great Friday!
