Dandy candy

1 servings

Ingredients

Quantity Ingredient
1 cup Peanut butter
1 cup Dry milk powder
½ cup Honey
1 teaspoon Vanilla
OPTIONAL ADDITIONS:
½ cup Carob powder
OR
1 cup Granola, rolled oats or puffed cereal
¼ cup Chopped nuts or seeds
Coconut
Wheat germ
Sesame seeds
Up to:
2 tablespoons Water (if mixture is too crumbly)

Directions

Combine peanut butter, milk powder, honey and vanilla in bowl or plastic bag.

Mix with fork or spoon or squeeze plastic bag until ingredients are well blended.

For FUDGY candy, add carob powder.

For CHEWY candy, add granola or oats.

For CRUNCHY candy, add puffed cereal. These are a little harder to roll, so you may prefer to pat this mixture into a pan.

Chop nuts, if you like.

Shape into balls (about 1 rounded teaspoon each) or a log. Roll in coconut, wheat germ or sesame seeds or a combination of all three.

Place on cookie sheet or plate. Or pat mixture into a pan.

Cover or wrap with plastic wrap and put in refrigerator to chill for about an hour or in freezer for 15 to 20 minutes.

Slice log or cut candy in pan into bite-sized squares.
