In honor of the bake-off, test out Chamber President Connie Rodgers no bake recipe for chocolate peanut butter cookies.

Chocolate Peanut Butter Cookies

Ingredients:

2 ½ Cups peanut butter

16 oz. Powdered sugar

1 1/3 Cups Graham cracker crumbs

¾ Cup soft butter

Beat ingredients together. Roll into small balls, no bigger than ¾ inch, and set on cookie sheet.  Refrigerate for at least 30 minutes to one hour. 

16 oz. Chocolate melts, candy or chips

Once the peanut butter balls are thoroughly chilled, melt chocolate in double boiler or in microwave oven. Never thin with water, use only vegetable oil. Drop peanut butter ball into melted chocolate to coat. I use two forks to drop, swirl to coat and quickly lift and return chocolate coated ball to cookie tray. 

Let the chocolate coating set and they are ready to eat. YUMMY!!
