Peanut Butter Cheese Ball Recipe Rating 5

It's easy to encourage children to eat an apple a day when this creamy peanut butter spread is served with it! I've made this cheese ball for many occasions, and it's always well received.

Yummy! I made this for my Scrapbooking club and it was a hit. It's best with a sweet cracker like cinniman grams which compliment the peanut butter and sugar. I plan to make one for my halloween party!

It's extremely EASY to make! I also made one with "crunchy peanut butter" and I like it even better!!!
