nine calories only!
eight sheperds-a-biding,
seven fruits-a-chocolatey,
six treats-a-baking,
five christmas movies,
four(ty) percent off,
three ballerina cousins,
two finals left,
and a cast made for walking around.
Ok, so these might have a little more than 9 calories...but it's Christmas. Who is counting anyway? I have made these ooeygooey peanut butter bars twice in the past week. Once for a Christmas party with great friends last weekend, and once for my family today. I actually made them for my brother to bribe him so that he would help me with some Christmas chores. Let's just say, it worked ;)
My cute friend Jaicy gave me this recipe. So thank her when you make these and squeal with how delicious they are.
