Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 1 cup Peanut butter (creamy or chunky)
- 0.333 cup Honey
- 1 teaspoon Vanilla extract
- 1 cup Wheat germ
- 0.5 cup Powdered milk
- 0.25 cup Chopped nuts or chocolate chips (optional)
Instructions
In a large mixing bowl, combine peanut butter, honey, and vanilla extract. Stir until smooth and well-blended.
Add the wheat germ and powdered milk to the mixture. Stir until all the ingredients are fully incorporated.
If using chopped nuts or chocolate chips, fold them in at this stage for added texture.
Using clean hands, form the mixture into small, bite-sized balls (about 1 inch in diameter) and place them on a parchment-lined baking sheet.
Refrigerate the treats for at least 30 minutes to allow them to firm up.
Serve immediately or store in an airtight container in the refrigerator for up to one week.
