Quick Pb And Graham Snack Recipes

EASY PEANUT BUTTER GRAHAM BALLS

Steps:

• In a bowl combine the peanut butter with confectioners sugar and graham crumbs until well combined.
• Add in the melted butter and mix thoroughly until combined (I find that using my hands for mixing works better than a spoon, if the mixture is not holding together add in a little more melted butter).
• Using hands shape into small balls (about 1-inch).
• Place the balls on a plate and refrigerate until completely cold (about 2 hours).
• After the balls have chilled I like to re-roll them again to make a perfect shaped ball but that is optional.
• In the microwave melt the chocolate with the shortening until smooth, removing once and stirring.
• Dip the COLD balls into the chocolate mixture to coat.
• Place on a baking sheet lined with parchment or waxed paper to set.

GRAHAM AND PEANUT BUTTER BON BONS

Steps:

• Set almond bark aside; mix remaining ingredients together in a bowl. Note: I had to mix it with my hands.
• Refrigerate for 1 hour.
• Melt almond bark.
• Form crumb mixture into balls and dip in melted almond bark, place on waxed paper.
• Allow the almond bark to cool and set up.

FROZEN GRAHAM CRACKER TREATS

Steps:

• Place the peanut butter and peeled bananas in a bowl, and mush them with a fork until you get a well-mixed bowl of mush.
• Break the graham crackers in half so you have 24 squares. Set 12 aside. Line a long piece of foil with the crackers in rows of 4, 3 columns high. Using your fork, dollop on a generous amount of mush on each of the 12 squares. (The original recipe called for 8 squares for this, but there was WAY too much mush for me, so use your discretion). Cover the mushy squares with your extra 12 squares, making them into 'sandwiches'. Stack and fold your 'sandwiches' into the foil, and freeze for about 6 hours. Eat, and SAVOR.
• Note: I'd recommend folding 1 row in the foil, then put the next row on top. When I did mine, the bottom rows got smooshed too much and froze together, and I was really careful. This may work in tupperware as well!

PEANUT BUTTER GRAHAM BALLS

Steps:

• Spread out a length of foil in your cooking area to hold candies.
• Combine first seven ingredients in a large bowl and form into balls no larger than 1" in diameter.
• Melt shortening, chocolate and butterscotch chips in double boiler (or over low heat) until smooth and well-blended.
• Dip balls in chocolate-butterscotch mixture (either a toothpick or a spoon can be used) and allow to cool on foil.
• Refrigerate as soon as the coating has set.
