No-Bake Peanut Butter & Chocolate Hamentaschen from *Busy in Brooklyn*:

Peanut Butter Buckeye Hamantaschen

3/4 cups natural peanut butter*

1/4 cup butter or margarine (1/2 stick)

1 tbsp honey

1 1/4 cups powdered sugar

1/2 teaspoon vanilla

1/4 tsp kosher salt

honey roasted peanuts

8oz. California Gourmet chocolate chips

2 tbsp coconut oil

Method:

In a large bowl, beat the peanut butter, margarine, honey, vanilla and salt. Add in the powdered sugar and mix until a soft dough forms. If the mixture is too sticky to handle, add a bit more powdered sugar. Roll the dough into balls and form each ball into a triangle. Fill each triangle with honey roasted peanuts.

Melt the chocolate over a double boiler and stir in the coconut oil. Using a fork, dip the peanut butter triangles into the chocolate so that the edges are covered all around. Shake off excess chocolate and place on parchment paper. Refrigerate until ready to serve.

*I use peanut butter that is labeled as natural but it still has sugar added.

YIELD: approximately 20 hamantaschen
