peanut butter honey candy squares
(1 RATING)
Hope you'll join my Just a Pinch group: Family Food Traditions--Sharing JOY on the Journey! We used to make this candy in zipper bags when my kids were little. It's a great activity for scouts and church groups, and a healthy snack, too! (Watch out for kids with peanut allergies!) These make great "energy bars" with the addition of nuts, seeds, etc. We put Rice Krispies, nuts, sunflower seeds, and granola in them for variety.
