Notes

Peanut butter varies a lot by brand. If mixture seems too dry after mixing you can add a little more peanut butter. // These work best if kept in the refrigerator. Once they get to warm, they will start to fall apart. I would recommend pulling them out of the refrigerator about 5 minutes before you are ready to eat them. You also can eat them cold. That is how I prefer them. // If you decided to cut yours in to shapes you will need to do it immediately after you remove it from the refrigerator so they don’t fall apart while cutting them.
