Peanut Butter Snowballs

One of Josie's favorites. And, I kind of think that it isn't all that unhealthy, at least until you get to the powdered sugar...We usually triple the batch as it makes so few! Last night I made a triple batch and it made around 80. (I know, that's a lot...but we travel with our candies to many houses during the holidays). I try to make them uniform in size...but well, that never quite works.

3/4 cup crunchy peanut butter (when tripling - I use 1 1/2 cup of crunchy and 3/4 of creamy)
1/2 cup honey
1 tsp vanilla
3/4 cup powdered milk
3/4 cup quick cook oats
1/4 cup graham cracker crumbs (yeah for the genius who finally put this on the shelves!)

powdered sugar

Mix together and form balls. Roll in powdered sugar and keep chilled.

One thing to look out for with this one is that sometimes the peanuts inhibit stickiness - just keep rolling and sort of pick out a few of the nuts.
