This recipe is not for children under age 1 because it contains honey and peanut butter.
You can use a blender or food processor to mix ingredients before shaping into balls.
You can store peanut butter balls in the freezer. Lay them out on a cookie sheet and freeze. Then store in a freezer bag. Thaw for 5 minutes before serving.
