2 cups honey
4 tablespoons butter
1/2 to 1 cup pecan or cashew halves
Put hone and butter into a saucepan that has been rinsed with cold water. Bring to a boil or until mixture holds together when dropped into cold water. Beat until it begins to lose its gloss; add nuts. Pour into well-buttered pan, cut or break into bits of brittle before mixture completely hardens.

Krispie Peanut Butter Balls
1 cup Peanut Butter (not reduced fat)
1 7 oz jar Marshmallow fluff
1 1/2 cup Rice Krispies
1 1/2 cup Semi Sweet Chocolate Chips
4 tsp Shortening (Crisco)
1. Mix peanut butter & fluff in large bowl stir in Rice Krispies until well coated.
2. In small microwavable bowl add chips and shortening. Microwave uncovered for 1-2 minutes or until chips are melted, stir until smooth.
** Melt on stove top set on low so that chocolate mix will not harden if the next step takes too long.
3. Roll cereal mixture into 1" balls. Dip into chocolate. Place on wax paper and put into refrigerator until chocolate sets.

this sounds great. My grandkids love rice krispie treats and the peanut butter would be an added bonus of nutrition.

Easy is the best, and even better if it tastes good.

This is great. I have a question. Can I use walnuts instead?

I wouldn't think it would hurt. Any type of nut you like would probably be okay.

I bet my boyfriend will love this one. He really likes honey, so hopefully he will like this. I'll probably use the cashews as he likes them better. Thanks. Who needs a cookbook when we have you.lol
