Peanut Butter Pebbles

Recipe: http://www.publicradio.org/columns/prairiehome/sundberg/2012/10/17.shtml



Wow. Where did the time go??? Family needs, husband away on missile work that added to my days, priming and painting walls and ceilings, along with Hurricane Sandy. She left me without power for 17 hours, and some serious cleanup in the basement and 3 weeks is gone before I know it. This recipe is out of order, but I promised the Mr. that he would get the mac and cheese when he came home from somewhere across the International Date Line, and my hurricane husband made landfall at Washington-Dulles International Airport three days ago, so the mac and cheese recipe will happen in the next few days, along with the pork chop recipe. Whew!

This recipe was made the weekend before Sandy showed up. I was able to share it around the neighborhood with several people, and it got rave reviews.

It was really a crazy recipe! I have never made anything like this, with the confectioner's sugar, and the big plastic bag to shake it up, but that big bag is key to incorporate the sugar and break the cereal pieces apart. I was impressed with how it went from the chocolatey, sticky bowl full, to a bag full of individual pieces that were coated with the sugar, and were not messy at all! I had a few clumps of ones that I didn't get broken apart, but they were fine, and delicious. Any time chocolate and peanut butter are mixed together is okay by me.

I would imagine that the Supremes would have loved this, but the other two were at sea on another mission, different from my Mr.'s, so the kids around the neighborhood got to enjoy this treat. I just bagged it up in zip bags, and handed it out. Oh, and it was gone in a day!

Thank you, Mrs. Sundberg. :-)
