Hi, everyone! I hope that everyone is getting their last minute Christmas shopping and baking finished up! I have been enjoying some time helping in my son’s class room and on his field trip this week and in between I am finishing up my baking. I have two types of cookies left to bake and a one new candy I want to try. So, I am very close to being done! Is it just me or has December gone so fast this year?Â
Today I am sharing another family favorite of ours, Peanut Butter Balls. If you love peanut butter, then these are a must try! This recipe actually made a lot of balls, I had around 6 dozen.Â
