Virtual Cookie Exchange - Graham Cracker Treats


The Results of Last Year's Christmas Cookie Baking
This weekend will be all about Christmas baking at our house.  When I saw Mari's post about a Virtual Cookie Exchange, I thought that I would post the recipe for a family favorite - Graham Cracker Treats.  They are the chocolate-covered wonders pictured in the top right of the photo.  Hope that you enjoy!

Graham Cracker Treats

2 Cups Graham Cracker Crumbs
1 Box Confectioner's Sugar
1/2 Cup Peanut Butter
1 Cup Coconut Flakes
2 Sticks Margarine
1 Cup Chopped Pecans
1 Teaspoon Vanilla
1 6-ounce package Chocolate Chips
1/3 cake of Paraffin Wax

Mix graham cracker crumbs, sugar, peanut butter, coconut, margarine, nuts and vanilla well.  Measure rounded tablespoons of mixture and roll into balls.  Melt chocolate chips and paraffin wax in double boiler.  Dip graham cracker balls in chocolate and lay on wax paper to dry.  Enjoy!
