Newsletter for December 2009
The posts for this December will all focus on gluten free christmas cookies and treats, one posted every few days between now and Christmas. This first recipe for Peanut Butter Balls has been in my family for a long time….I can remember my brother and I sneaking into the freezer to eat these when my mom wasn’t looking!
Peanut Butter Balls
1 cup peanut butter
1 cup powdered sugar
1 cup dates, finely chopped
1 cup nuts (hazelnuts, walnuts, or almonds), finely chopped
1 Tbsp butter, melted
6 oz. semi-sweet chocolate chips
Mix together the peanut butter, powdered sugar, dates, nuts, melted butter and roll into 1 inch balls. Melt the chocolate chips in a double boiler over hot water. Coat the peanut butter balls in the melted chocolate, place on a cookie sheet lined with wax paper, and refrigerate to harden.
