Peanut Butter Meltaways (Bear's Favorite Candy)

I might just microwave everything, leave it in the bowl, and eat it from there.

LOL---That would be good, I know because I get to clean the bowl & utensils every time.
A bit rich for eating any amount though.

Just made these. Used regular cupcake size though. Will be like Reese's. The mixture is amazing already.

I've decided that you all have to try these in normal cupcake size paper liners. None of that mini liner stuff.

LOL---Sounds Great, but that wouldn't work for me.
The only reason I can eat these things a couple times a year is because through portion control I can make a batch last "Weeks". If I made them bigger, that would blow my whole plan.
20 years ago, I'd have been right with you on the bigger size!

Made a batch of these this weekend. Can't find the medallions around here, but chips work just as well. They were a real hit with my lovely gal and her boys. Simple as ever recipe, but I highly recommend using the pastry deal instead of the ziplock. The ziplock was pretty hard to work with, along with rather hot! Enjoyed them, and have a bunch in the freezer now for future enjoyment! Thanks Bear!

Mrs Bear uses a candy funnel with a triggered stopper.

Could go for one of my cupcake size PB meltaways right now. Same recipe just 10 times bigger.

LOL---A lot easier than filling 80 to 90 Mini-cups.

Wishing I didn't come across this recipe. Just had 2 big boys after dinner. Good for the soul. Not good for my diet.

LOL---That's why I make them small.
When I was your age, I could eat these by the handful, but now I have to make them small & limit myself to a low number of consumption.
That's what I meant by "Ah, To be 30 again".:D

Not sure guys if that would be so good-If i was that age I'd be stuck on the commute home ,stressed,tired and sore from work at this time of day. Instead I'm retired , relaxed and having a cold one and just older by a few decades ! :)

Sorry I'm late Bumping this up for the Christmas Holidays, but there's still some time to make some.
Mrs Bear just made these yesterday.

Bear

This time she didn't pour them into paper liners----She poured them into her new Silicon candy molds:

Mrs. Bear dressed them up nicely.
