Jesus loves you ... and peanut butter balls.


I had a friend when I was little that invited me to Vacation Bible School.  I had only really ever gone to my own church activities so this was fun to visit another church.  I don't remember a ton..  Just tracing my body to make a lifesize cutout..  It had something to do with Jesus..   and then singing about Jesus... and some other things about Jesus.    Which is similar to my church...  but then we made these delicious Honey Peanut Butter balls..  which also somehow related to Jesus..  don't remember how...... but for years I remembered these treats but had lost the reciepe.

Thankfully with the invention of recipe sites I as an adult was able to look it up and make them at my house : )

Here is a link to the recipe:

  • 2 cups dry powdered milk (adjust based on the amount of honey
  • 1 cup Peanut Butter
  • 1/2-1 cup Honey


  • Mix all ingredients well until stiff enough to shape.
  • Form in balls about the size of a walnut.
  • Chill well for 2 - 4 hours.




They are super simple..  Delicious.. and now I think about Jesus everytime I eat them..  Well played VBC.. Well played...

I'm BAAACK

Holy Cow..  It's been awhile!

So after life craziness and a trip to mexico.. I am finally home and getting into the Christmas Spirit.  Today we are having an office ornament exchange.  For my delicious plate of food I brought in some Crescent Roll Cream Cheese Bars.  They are delicious and made even better by the addition of vanilla, bananas and honey...  Some of my favorite flavors of all time...
Here is the original recipe from Pillsbury   MY changes are in green.

1 cup sugar, plus 1 teaspon
2 bananas sliced
1/4-1/2 cup drizzle of honey

2 tablespoons melted butter

DIRECTIONS

1 Preheat oven to 350. 2 Unroll 1 can of the crescent rolls and place into a 9x13 pan, smoothing out the seams. 3 Mix together the cream cheese and sugar and vanilla  with electric mixer until blended well. 4 Spread cream cheese mixture on top of crescent rolls.  Evenly spread over banana slices and drizzle honey over all. 5 Unroll 2nd can of crescent rolls and place on top of cream cheese mixture, pinch together the seems. 6 Brush top with melted butter. 7 Sprinkle with 1 teaspoon sugar and 2 teaspoons cinammon. 8 Bake at 350 for 20 minutes or until lightly brown. 9 Cut into bars and serve.
