Healthy Version of Peanut Butter Balls

A friend of mine sent me the link to this recipe. I am glad I  tried it! The kids loved them! Thanks Leah, for the link!

1 - cup honey 
1 1/2 - cups creamy peanut butter 
2 - cups dry powdered milk 
3 - cups quick or old fashioned oatmeal, uncooked 
1 - 2 - tablespoons wheat germ 
(I used a wheat germ flax seed mix) 
1/2 cup mini chocolate chips (optional) or 
graham cracker crumbs (optional) 

Mix all together with hand mixer. Form into balls with hands and freeze on a baking sheet lined with waxed paper until firm. Remove from freezer and store in a large zip lock bag in the refrigerator. 

Optional: If using chocolate chips add them with all the ingredients and roll into balls. If using graham cracker crumbs. After rolling into balls , roll into graham cracker crumbs and then freeze. I have always used either or but not both, my little guy loves the chocolate chips and my dd doesn't. You can also leave out the wheat germ if you do not have any one hand. It wont alter the texture or taste. It was just a perk I added to sneak in some goodness.
