Audrey,
My son and I just made these. So easy and a lot of fun!
I don’t know how you came up with all these recipes, with all your family has been through lately. Best of luck with the storm recovery.

Thank you so much Ginna for the wonderful 5-star recipe review! I made these pumpkin peanut butter balls last year with my kids and they were super fun. We are slowly recovering from the hurricane. We still don’t have an internet connection, so I am having to drive into town to Starbucks or Chick-fil-A to post new recipes to my blog. It’s been a challenge. I’m trying to keep posting one new recipe a week. I really appreciate your kind words. Thank you again!
