Sodium is a part of my life. Not necessarily that I would like to eat everything, but there is something about the praise that taste the best of itself is delicious.
This year, and spend the Christmas holiday arrived, and I did the thing that surprised everyone. And announced that I will do my holiday oven usual, which is not really the bread is much more like making candy. I thought that this would be useful because it may put in a lot of time and effort to improve myself with P90X, and I do not want me to surrender the will to holidays.
My decision and, of course, no support. So my husband decided to comprimise. I have no oven to do my holiday ... But I had to do until Christmas and Holiday cakes, gifts, candy, and peanut butter balls. So, I decided it was time to test my will power and go for it. After all, it was the holidays.
Now, I'm not really sure where the balls of peanut originated from, and I know that there are several different recipes out there that make similar kind of fun, with some of the different components. This is the recipe I've used for years, and part of my family cookbooks.
Not only are these delicious little sweet, but not easy to achieve this is in fact not necessary limited to only these holidays. I have been doing for years, with the exception of this year, and usually creates a surplus of them. After that I did and peanut butter balls set, usually a bag and freeze to remain fresh for longer periods of time.
However, this year, apparently did not do enough. Although usually find these balls of peanut butter in the freezer for me come June of this year did not get to the end of January. Gone are the peanut butter balls. Therefore, you made me think. Maybe I need to do something else. Children love them and, frankly, is not the worst gift you could have a craving for chocolate.
While the amount of calories depends on the type and the type of chocolate you use, (and of course how big your balls) this dessert almost 100 calories per transaction. I can not think of many other things that are worse than that. Unfortunately, you can not eat just one. So I have been warned.
Now let's get to it ...
Leave a large bowl and mix until
Once all mixed, it will be a large bowl of porridge. This is the time to get the others around to help you roll into balls. Be prepared, you will get your hands dirty!

Components
A short list for this recipe, which is good because it means that most of the time you have everything at hand. Or, if you need to run to the store to pick up the ingredients, and you know you will not break the bank.
2 cups peanut butter
2 cups graham cracker crumbs (about half a pack of biscuits)
2 cups powdered sugar
1/4 cup margarine
A block of chocolate (dark or normal - whatever you prefer)
In addition to the ingredients, and Laszlo will need a large bowl for mixing ingredients in a bag the size of the gallon ziploc to crush the cookies into crumbs, measuring cups, wax paper so that the chocolate is set, grill and a double (to heat the chocolate).
Focus
Kids love to help do so. As you can see, is in deep concentration to ensure they have the size and shape perfect!

Immersion and wetting
I have a special tool for sweets, but dunking a fork will work just as well. Make sure you cover the ball with chocolate. Work quickly. Hot chocolate and may cause balls of peanut butter to soften.
This is how we do ...
This recipe is easy. You can even get the kids involved in the initial stages.
As is the case in all the sodium, make sure you have all the elements and all the tools and ready for delivery. While nothing will happen if they do not because there is really nothing here on time, make your life easier in the kitchen.
The first thing we do is break down the cookie. I put some files in the whole bag at one time and then the delivery of children outside. Like the crumbling up. When you are done, take a rolling pin on top to make sure there is not much left over collapses.
Now measure the ingredients ... Mix peanut butter, crackers, powdered sugar and ghee. Do not try this with a spoon. It will take forever, and your arm gets tired. Even get dirty with it, and dig with both hands. It will be the best consistency and it is much easier for you.
Once everything mixed, to take to the small balls. Do you want to put a piece of waxed paper on cookie sheet and put there. After the ball is thrown, you can go directly to a reduction in chocolate, but I prefer them, and put it in the refrigerator or freezer for about an hour. This will help them to continue together to begin to put it in hot chocoloate.
Now is the time to prepare the chocolate. In the water instead of chicken in a double down the stairs and chocolate in the top drawer. Even if you have a double broiler and you probably already know that! Melt the chocolate.
When ready, place a sheet of waxed paper and start dipping your balls in chocolate. Let's put it on waxed paper until chocolate is good and tight. Then you can put on the decorative plate for everyone to enjoy or can be packaged in a gallon ziploc bag and put it in the refrigerator or freezer. Usually freeze mine, and can be up to 6 months or more.
Yes - It's that easy!

Some additional observations
This recipe produces 50 to 60 different balls, depending on how large you make.
This is a great gift for a deal with other goodies such as a nice gift, homemade.
This is very easy ... Even the children of participants.
While it is good to have children involved, and should always be adults who make a decline in chocolate. Chocolate and pan is hot, and can cause burns.
You will get dirty. Do not wear clothes in the best of what they have to this adventure.
Once and dropped balls in the chocolate and let the plan out of the fridge for at least an hour or two. You want to make is good and solid before packing them.
Feel free to change it. While in normally just use chocolate, and this year I was dark chocolate. The results were a surprise, which is probably why we have gone.
This is a sweet enough that having one is definitely a treat for the sweet tooth.
Sarah is not if you do this once and people suddenly being asked to do so again.
These balls peanut butter is addictive. I dare to eat just one!
