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.
