A sweet treat that is quick and easy to make. My aunt used to make these with powdered milk so I decided to try the toasted wheat germ and must say it was thoroughly enjoyed. Made this recipe as written although it did take a little more than 1/2 cup coconut for rolling all the balls. Thanks for the post.

So easy! I actually used oats instead of the milk or wheat germ, then rolled in coconut. I think I'd use a bit less honey next time but that's just me -- everyone loved them. Thanks for sharing!

The kids really liked these and would have ate all of them, if I did not limit them. I used half powdered milk and half toasted wheat germ when I made these. I had written the recipe down on paper, so when I started gathering the ingredients, I wondered why I did not write down sesame seeds. The answer is because it did not call for them. But then I researched sesame seed and found the following info...majority of the wild species of the genus Sesamum (sesame seed) are native to sub-saharan Africa. So I decided to roll the other half of these candies in sesame seed. I think I like the ones it the rolled in the seeds the best. Made for *ZWT 6* I'm on Team *Ya Ya Cookerhood*

What else can be said but yum! I also used chunky style peanut butter. We made half rolled in coconut, and half rolled in toasted sunflower seeds.

These were good but I think they would have been better with less powder milk in them. I am going to try making again but with only 1/2 cup next time. Made for ZWT 4

WOW! I am impressed. I used toasted wheat germ to make my candy and I could have eaten them all. Excellent flavor and good for you too. Made for ZWT4.

Yummy! I used Smucker's Natural PB and tried both powdered milk and raw wheat germ to see if I liked one better. They are about the same, but the milk might have a slight edge over the raw wheat germ. I used unsweetened coconut. Next time, I'll use a big wooden spoon instead of a metal serving spoon so I can mix up a really stiff dough as mine today were a little mushy. Still tasty! Thanks! Reviewed for ZWT4.

These are really good and easy to make. I love the addition of honey in this as a sweetener. I made this for ZWT4 for the African Dessert Challenge - Tastebud Tickling Travellers.

These are really good. I made them with 1 1/2 cups wheat germ since that's what I had on hand.

These were so yummy that I had to take them to work and share them around, otherwise I would have eaten too many! An added bonus is that it used up my peanut butter. I bought a different brand and found it too sweet. I was wondering how long it would take me to get through it but this made excellent use of it. I'll go back to my usual brand next time! I made this recipe with 2 cups of powdered milk. Made a nice firm dough with an almost chewy texture. Made for ZWT 4

Very easy to make and yummy! I used powdered milk for the extra calcium and protein, so these are a pretty healthy snack. I microwaved the honey first to warm it up a bit. Also, I only made 1/4 of the recipe and my yield was 16 pieces! Made for ZWT4.

What a great treat! I used natural peanut butter, nonfat powdered milk and flaxmeal to put these together - then rolled them in toasted unsweeted coconut. I don't think my consistency was quite right, cuz they kept flattening out. The honey is very prominent and yummy. Careful though, as they are addicting!! Made for ZWT4.

I did half the recipe and got 14 pieces. It's very easy to do. I needed about 1 cup of powdered milk. It's a quick little dessert that can please a sweeth tooth like me :) I brought some to work and one of my coworkers told me that chocolate around would be great. Thanks Leslie.

Very good - I didn't use coconut because only my dad likes it, but these are very good! I used wheat germ and regular Jif peanut butter.

These were really fun cookies to make! My daughters enjoyed helping me with them. I didn't have wheat germ, so I used powdered milk. Thanks for sharing the recipe!

I loved these little treats! I used 1/2 powdered milk & 1/2 wheat germ. Rather than coconut, I rolled them in crunched up peanuts. Almost a Payday candy bar!!! A keeper for me!
