Sooz Cooks's Note:

I have to say the first time my friend Mare made these little bundles of delight, I was skeptical! Now she makes them every time we go over because we LOVE them so much.

I grew up on this yummy stuff! We served it as a snack w/o the butter, but as they say, I'll bet butter makes it better! If you like salty peanuts, you will love this tasty treat!

OK, so I cheated, and made this for myself, but, boy am I glad! :) Delish! And easy, so I'll keep this one in the 'lunch' file for sure. I used crunchy peanut butter, as that is what I had on hand, but I think it would be better with creamy. Thanks so much for sharing, Sooz Cooks!

I made this for the gang on our little mini-vacation. Everyone loved this unique appetizer. What a nice change of pace from the usual treats that usually show up at gatherings. I made two batches, the first exactly as written and then the second batch I used Amish Peanut Butter (a mixture of peanut butter and marshmallow cream). Both ways were excellent. Thanks for sharing this treat, SoozieQ. It's a winner!
