Katy, a little girl in the sixth grade from Charlotte, North Carolina, enjoys helping out in the kitchen. Some of Katy’s favorite recipes to make are from Not Just Sunday Dinner. A few of her NJSD favorites are Nan’s Easy Skillet Apple Pie and Pizza Dip, two of my favorites also! Katy recently shared this yummy candy recipe with me. These no bake peanut butter M&M balls are simple and addicting! They are the prefect snack to serve at your Easter egg hunts or any other Easter gathering.
I increased the powdered sugar measurement from 2 1/2 cups to 3 3/4 cups because I felt they were easier to roll. Thank you so much for sharing your delicious recipe, Katy! I look forward to you sharing many new recipes with me.
