Peanut Butter Pumpkins

Total Time: 40 mins Preparation Time: 40 mins

Ingredients

  • 1/2 cup butter
  • 1 1/2 cups peanut butter
  • 1 (16 ounce) package confectioners' sugar, sifted
  • red food coloring
  • yellow food coloring
  • green decorators icing

Recipe

  • 1 melt butter in a large bowl and add a few drops of yellow and red food coloring, until mixture has a nice orange color.
  • 2 add the peanut butter and confectioners sugar and mix together until a doughlike consistency is reached. (this means that when the dough is nice and stiff and it gets hard to add any more sugar, to let it go at that).
  • 3 shape dough into small balls shaped like pumpkins; make ridges on the pumpkins with a toothpick.
  • 4 add a small amount of green decorators icing to the top of each pumpkin for a stem.
  • 5 refrigerate, if desired, to allow pumpkins to firm.
  • 6 serve on a plate lined with toasted coconut and halloween decorated cookies, if desired; these also look good on top of cupcakes.
