FANCY ANTS ON A LOG



Fancy Ants on a Log image

I think I'm going to alternatively name it "Gentlemen Ants On A Log". This is just yummy. I made it up for my sister's bug party--we're doing something a little more adult, and a little more fancy, so I updated the recipe for grown-ups (of course, it is still kid-friendly). I used a mixture of imitation honey and splenda--so yes, fiddle with the sweetness and honey flavor as you like.

Time 5m

Yield 18 logs, 18 serving(s)

Number Of Ingredients 6

6 stalks celery
4 tablespoons cream cheese
4 tablespoons unsalted creamy peanut butter or 4 tablespoons almond butter
1 teaspoon honey
raisins (or dried cranberries, or chocolate chips, or white chocolate chips)
rum (optional)

Steps:

  • Optional Step: Soak raisins in just enough rum to cover for at least one hour, or overnight. You can cook the rum first for a nonalcoholic version for kids. Drain before using.
  • Cut the celery stalks into 2-3 inch logs.
  • Cream together the cream cheese, peanut butter, and honey (the cream cheese and peanut butter can be eyeballed to equal parts; the honey is more to taste. When I'm done, it tastes almost like cheesecake).
  • Spread the peanut butter mixture into the valleys of each log. Alternatively, fill a dessert decorator and pump the peanut butter mixture into the valley like frosting.
  • Line up raisins along the center.
  • Variation:.
  • I won't put up a different recipe for every nifty ants on a log idea I come up with, so here are a couple of ideas:.
  • Spread nutella down the valley of the celery and garnish with raisins.
  • Or, spread Recipe #120220 over the valley of the celery and garnish with raisins.

ANTS ON A LOG (FOR A TEA PARTY)



Ants on a Log (For a Tea Party) image

These are cute for kids and healthy, too. They go well with other things at a tea party. Also, they would be good for a lunch for the kids. If it is for a tea party the inside stalks will be more dainty, but if it is for the child's lunch, any stalk will do.
