Reminds me of my mom :]
Rated: 5 stars out of 5

My mother passed away a few months ago, and me being only 18 i didn't expect it, because she wasn't old and it was very very... sudden. My mother was the best cook/chef in the family and everyone admitted it. Every Christmas she would make these peanut butter balls as well as many pies and other dishes that were mouth watering delicious. As this is going to be my 1st christmas and it was my first thanksgiving without her i am trying to find recipes to recreate those memories and dishes..Saying that these are exactly like the ones my mother use to make and it brings a tear to my eye and joy to my heart(and stomach) that I could at least find one recipe that recreates those memories. Thanks so much and much love, Meghan. Simple and Delicious.Read more

Nothing's Better than PB & Chocolate
Rated: 4 stars out of 5

Had a little trouble getting the mixture to come together, but it's delicious when said and done. I used unsweetened PB (you... can find it at Trader Joe's or any health food store) and slightly less sugar than the recipe calls for. Delish!Read more

Great taste!
Rated: 4 stars out of 5

These were great peanut butter balls! I have to say that the dipping part was a little tricky. I would put the peanut butter... mixture in the fridge for a little bit before dipping making it a little firmer and easier to work with. I also used a melon baller to help scoop up the balls! This recipe was great and I would recommend it to everyone.Read more
