love the format you used here. I thought, *oh no 18 steps!* But you just made each baby-step crystal-clear. Perfect for brand-new cooks, like kids, or for us old-timers who are a little burned out and distracted due to holiday madness. I'll be making this recipe later today -- looks delicious!

hmm... i made these but there was oil oozing out of the bottom of them and were pretty much un-eatable. could there be a typo in the butter or the peanut butter? looking around other similar recipes, i couldn't find any that had a full cup of pb and a full cube of butter. on the other hand, i used 'old fashioned peanut butter', which doesn't have any of the additives of typical store-bought. maybe that was the problem?

(i rescued them by returning the whole shebang to a large mixing bowl, adding another 3/4 C or so of the oats, mixing it with my hands till new oats were fully absorbed. gently reheat to get everything gluey again, shape by hand into balls. not perfect, but ok!)

let me know your solution, or confirm my senility, and i'll update these comments... still love the way you put this instructable together!
