My Mom found this cute idea in her blog adventures one day! We tried it out and they are super cute and super good if you like peanut butter. They taste like peanut butter fudge, only better and much cuter! They are a little time consuming but kind of fun to make especially with the kids.
All you need is one bag of peanut butter chips (like chocolate chips) and one container of vanilla frosting.
Melt the peanut butter chips in the microwave and then add the vanilla frosting to it. Set aside a very small amount to color green for the stems and color the rest orange. It kind of gets tuff to stir. Then you set in fridge for one hour.
To make pumpkins you roll the orange into balls. Take a knife to score like a real pumpkin and then you set it down and push the top down with your thumb. It opens up the scores that you just made to make it look like pumpkin. Then you use a tooth pick to make a little hole in the top to stick the stem in that you make out of the green.
I hope this makes sense. There really isn't any directions so these are my special instructions and I wanted to be clear as possible so it may be sound stupid. If you have any questions let me know.
Enjoy!

Those looks so yummy! You gals are so creative!! By the way, I absolutely love the family pics below. Such a pretty setting.
How cute Rhonda! We just got done making and frosting a bunch of cookies. Why do I make treats? So I can eat them!
Thanks for sending some home with Pete - we're big fans of peanut butter and fudge in this house! You can make anykind of fudge with those 2 ingredients... one of my favorites is cream cheese frosting with mint chips - and of course peanut butter chips with chocolate frosting. Your pumpkins were adorable and gone so fast. Thanks again.
So I made them. They turned out great. I was surprised how much they actually taste like fudge!
