Love to cook in, AL

We have made these yummy peanut butter balls every Christmas for 24 years. I always make them with my mother in law. Now my little girl loves making them with us.

The Kitchen Crew is plain nutty for these little guys! We had to hold my grandson - an Honorary Crew Member - back before he ate the whole first batch! Now that's the ultimate endorsement.
