Peanut Butter Ball Spiders Recipe

Peanut Butter Ball Spiders Recipe
Makes 2 dozen
1/4 cup unsalted butter
1 cup whole wheat pretzels, crumbled
1 cup creamy peanut butter
1/2 cup dry milk
1/2 cup peanut flour
1 cup powdered sugar
100 pretzel sticks
48 mini chocolate chips

Line cookie sheet with foil.

Melt butter in microwave safe bowl.

Combine crumbled pretzels, peanut butter, dry milk, peanut flour and powdered sugar in large bowl.

Mix in melted butter.

Roll mixture into balls, 1 tablespoon at a time.

Chill overnight.

Poke six pretzels into each peanut butter ball (three into each side, to create spider legs)
Press chocolate chips into “face” of spider for eyes.

Balls can be prepared up to 1 week ahead of time, kept in an airtight container in the refrigerator.

Spiders can be prepared by children at the party!
