Peanut Honey Rolls

My mother should have been a food writer. She finds all these tasty little treats from days gone by. These are a simple mixture of peanut butter, honey, and dried powdered milk creamed together and then rolled in dry roasted, salted peanuts. I wrapped mine in individual waxed paper as you would salt water taffy and kept them in a container in the refrigerator for a quick treat. These don't even require any cooking, but should stay in the refrigerator to keep them firm. They remind me of a payday bar without the corn syrup, sugar, and vegetable oil additives.


She found this recipe in an old book called Honey I Love You - you're so sweet and good to me by the Reverend Maurice H. Ness. Copyright 1966.

These are delightful!....every time I eat one I think....should I enrobe these in chocolate ? ....to be continued :)


 

 

 

Peanut Honey Roll Recipe

Ingredients

1/2 cup peanut butter  
1/2 cup honey  
3/4 to 1 cup dry powdered milk 
1 cup dry roasted, salted peanuts, rough chopped

Instructions

Combine peanut butter, honey, and dry powdered milk with a beater until mixed. Use enough milk powder to get the consistency you like. You can either roll into a log at this point or use a small scooper and make little balls and flatten slightly. Roll or press into rough chopped peanuts and transfer to the refrigerator to chill. Wrap individually if desired.
