Pecan halves coated in peanut butter, chocolate, and powdered sugar – this makes a great gift, too! I had these addictive Pecan Muddy Buddies cooling on a cookie sheet on the kitchen counter for the boys to snack on as they walked in from school. Miller Boy #1: Mom, what is this? Me: They’re pecans with peanut butter, chocolate, and powdered sugar. Try one. Miller Boy #2: They look like rocks.Me: Well I made them and I can tell you for sure they aren’t rocks. Just try one. **munching**Miller Boy #1: They taste like peanuts. You know I don’t like peanuts. Miller Boy #2: Yeah, you know I don’t like peanuts, Mom. It’s a tough crowd I have to work with around here, you guys, I’m telling you! In all honesty, toddler Reuben would have tasted any of that sugary good stuff on the counter if I chose to give him a bite. He needs a few more molars to chew anything crunchy yet, but I might just have a little foodie in the making, we shall see. 🙂 These Pecan Muddy Buddies are the perfect treat to mix up for any holiday or celebration. Wrap up a couple of handfuls in a clear cellophane bag with a ribbon and it makes a great gift, too! What a great snack to munch on while watching the big game next month, too! I’d bet these would be gone in no-time! If you liked this Pecan Muddy Buddies recipe, leave a rating and a comment below this post!
