That being said, my (unhealthy) obsession with peanut butter far outweighs some jackhole TV personality. These things are to die for. I know some of you (Ellie) are allergic to walnuts or pecans as am I. I usually will just mix the confectioner's sugar with some cocoa powder and roll them in that. You can also melt down some choclate bars and dip them in that - depending on just how big you want you butt to get for New Year's.
Anyway - without further ado - here is the recipe for
Miss Piggy Deen's Nutty Balls:
Ingredients:
1 cup peanut butter
1 cup honey
2 cups powdered milk
1 1/2 cups crushed cornflakes
1 1/2 cups finely chopped walnuts or pecans
1 cup powdered sugar
Directions:
Mix peanut butter, honey, and milk together in a large bowl to form very thick mixture. Roll mixture in small balls about the size of a walnut. Roll the balls in either the crushed cornflakes, finely chopped nuts, or powdered sugar. Place on waxed paper and refrigerate for 20 minutes.
p.s. A nifty trick for minimizing the mess when measuring PB - stick a cupcake/muffin paper thing or a piece of tin foil in your measuring cup before you cram it with the peanut butter. Then you can just lift it out and scrape off the PB without getting into a cussing match with your measuring cup for withholding that last li'l bit.
