"These are great cookies to make with kids since they don't have to be baked. I'm not sure how "healthy" these are, but they are a nice snack." — THEA

Directions

Heat honey and peanut butter together over low heat until creamy. Remove from heat and cool.
Mix the rest of the ingredients into the honey/peanut butter mixture, except coconut. Shape into balls. Roll in coconut and refrigerate or eat right away.

Thanks, Thea, for such a great recipe! I've made these a few times and our family and friends think they are REALLY REALLY GOOD! This recipe is a versatile one - I made a few small changes to suit my own taste: In place of 3 Tabls of the honey I added 3 Tabls Black Strap Molasses, I left out the chocolate chips, and used pecans instead of walnuts. Delicious!

I used Trader Joe's almond butter and homemade "pumpkin pie" granola. Because we don't care for walnuts, I used finely chopped almonds. YUM. We absolutely loved these. SO good. Great way to use a little bit of everything and that last half cup or so of granola PLUS it's great for little hands to help make something in the kitchen with Mom.

Yum! I used granola with dried cranberries and apricots with crunchy peanut butter and honey, omitted the other ingredients and they came out quite tasty!

These are very good and so easy to make. My kids think they are great and are a nice after school snack while they wait for supper. I would imagine that these would freeze well too. Thanks for the recipe.
