Hi i thought to make these with my kindergardeners today,  but we have no powdered milk.  i have flower.  is it ok, or something else really easy to get....yes powdered milk seems easy but not in the part of europe i live in. thanks

No Bake Peanut Butter Balls 1/2 cup peanut butter
1/2 cup honey
1 cup crushed corn flakes cereal
2 tablespoons powdered milk
Set corn flakes aside. 
Mix all other ingredients well.
Roll into balls.
Then roll again in Cornflakes until covered.
Refrigerate leftovers.
This is a yummy snack that's great with milk !

Well, I can't say for sure how well "flowers" would work in the recipe. Have you considered using "flour" instead?  ;)

Hehehe.

Since flour is not a dairy product, it will not lend the flavor that the powdered milk would lend. And since it's a thickener, it will probably mess up the consistency. I think leaving the milk out entirely would be better than adding flour.

Do you have any nesquick mix, or chocolate powder? That would probably taste way yummy.

Oh, oh!  Flower vs flour?  Are you sure you are the teacher?

ya ya always doing stuff like that.  ya good idea, i have coconut also.  hummmmm

I think fine cookie or cracker crumbs would work.  I used to make these with my kids and the dry milk powder takes away the stickyness and holds the mixture together.

Maybe it's time to think of a different career?

You can always use a powdered soy lecitin to replace the powdered milk in the recipes. It's diary free and cholesterol free.

You shouldn't use flour to replace the powdered milk in this recipe, since it states it is a no-bake recipe.  I don't know about everyone else, but I don't think raw flour tastes very good...

I think the cookie crumbs is an excellent idea. Or try making a powder out of the cereal flakes in the food processor...
