EASY PEANUT BUTTER PUMPKINS

The month has just barely begun, and our 8-year-old little one is already obsessed with what she's going to be for Halloween.  We had to make our first run to the Halloween store yesterday afternoon to start scoping out the costumes and getting ideas for how she's going to dress up.

Her current thinking? ~ She's going to be a vampire.  And she just can't wait to put on some drops of fake blood.  I think my years of cute, sweet little costumes are over.


Ingredients
3/4 c. (6 oz.) creamy peanut butter
3 c. (16 oz.) powdered sugar
1/2 c. (1 stick) butter, softened
1/4 c. water*
1 tsp. vanilla extract
7 drops each red & yellow food coloring (I use gel food coloring)
mini chocolate chips
toothpicks for forming the pumpkins

Directions

  1. With an electric mixer, mix together peanut butter, powdered sugar, and butter until well combined and smooth.
  2. Place vanilla extract and food coloring in the water. Add water to the peanut butter mixture and mix until combined. Chill for about 20 to 30 minutes.  (NOTE: Use more or less food coloring to suit your desired color.)
  3. Shape a small piece of the peanut butter dough into a small ball ~ the mixture is very rich, so keep your dough balls on the small side.
