T. O. H. FUDGY BUTTONS [ KID COOK SAFE]



T. O. H. Fudgy Buttons [ Kid Cook Safe] image

All you have to do is melt the butter and let the kid go to town making the buttons. To explain, I have sort of defatted it for our use. However here is the Taste Of Home version. It all started when I wanted some fudge and I can't make fudge worth a hoot. I used Peanut Butter extract instead of the real thing. As good as my version is, I am betting this one is better. Not going to be the most glorious thing you ever made, but I bet the kid will be proud of it. Note I added a drop of vanilla to mine.

Time 3m

Yield 18 buttons, 9 serving(s)

Number Of Ingredients 5

2 tablespoons butter
1 1/2 teaspoons baking cocoa
1/2 cup confectioners' sugar
1/2 teaspoon milk
2 tablespoons creamy peanut butter

Steps:

  • Melt the butter in a microwave-safe bowl in the microwave or in a small saucepan on top of the stove. Note the T.O.H recipe insists on only using butter.
  • If using saucepan remove from the heat.
  • Add cocoa and mix well. Stir in sugar. Add milk and stir until smooth. Add peanut butter and mix well.
  • Drop by teaspoonsful onto wax paper.
  • Flatten tops and shape into 1-inch patties.
  • Refrigerate until serving.
  • note mine must be chilled to get the right texture but of course I just may be rushing things along.
  • Also if it starts to get too thick you can add a bit more milk but do so carefully. It will cause problems with it setting up right. I would add by 1/8 teaspoons Stir see if it helps if not then add the next 1/8 [like adding liquid to baking mixtures] It will also help a child understand about adding.
