I am looking to identify a recipe from my younger days. I vaguely remember some kind of snacky treat being served that had peanut butter and raisins. The peanut butter was raw and the entire thing was uncooked, Definatly not a cookie or a bar. I remember the texture being slightly gritty like it had raw brown sugar in it or was maybe rolled in it. Possibly in a ball shape. I've been searching google like crazy and I cannot find anything that sounds like what I remember.

Perhaps they were no-bake-cookies. Maybe something here can help you.

It wasn't ants on a log (celery with PB and raisins) with poorly cleaned celery?

I think FF has it, I remember these from my youth. The powdered milk makes them slightly gritty and the honey makes them sweet.

Yep, I made those a lot as a kid, though never with coconut. Dang, I've got to make those again. It's been a long time.

mmmmm coulda been the peanut butter balls.. I will have to try that recipe and see. I lack the dry milk or I would make it right now. I think FF may have it though.
By the way. Peanut butter, Raisins and brown sugar is pretty good all mixed together. Made a little dish for desert last night to take to work and it was quite nice..

Buckeyes? No raisins (rather, dipped in chocolate) but they definitely have a distinct gritty texture.
