Ingredients
For 3 Dozen(s)
Recipe
- 1/2 cup(s) peanut butter
- 2 tablespoon(s) butter, softened
- 2 cup(s) icing sugar, divided
- 1+ cup(s) shredded, sweetened coconut
- 2 cup(s) bran flakes
Peanut Butter Balls Directions
In a medium-size bowl, mix the peanut butter and butter. Add 1 cup icing sugar and mix well.
Add the Bran Flakes, and mix well.
In a small bowl, make a thin paste with 1 cup of icing sugar and water. (The paste should drip off your spoon). Measure 1 cup of coconut into a separate bowl.
Scoop out a heaping tablespoonful of the Bran Flakes mixture, and roll it into a ball. Coat it with the icing sugar paste and then roll it in the coconut. Place it on a baking sheet. Contine in this manner until all the Bran Flakes mixture is rolled and coated.
MAKE ADDITIONAL PASTE AND REPLENISH THE COCONUT AS NECESSARY.
Refrigerate at least 2 hours and then place in an airtight container. Store in cold room or refrigerator.
