Chocolate Crispy Snack Balls (T&T)
These are great little snacks to have around the house for when you have an urge for something but don't know what.
Ingredients
- 1 (18 ounce) jar peanut butter* (creamy or chunky)
- 2 cups Rice Krispies
- 1 1/2 cups confectioners' sugar
- 1 cup melted semisweet chocolate
Instructions
- Melt chocolate in a double boiler until smooth. Set aside.
- In a medium bowl, combine peanut butter, Rice Krispies and confectioners' sugar, mixing until all ingredients are incorporated and forms a dough.
- Pinch off 1 inch pieces and roll into a ball (I have a digital scale and weigh out pieces of dough for uniform balls). With a wooden pick or fork, dip the balls into chocolate until totally coated (I sometimes roll them in finely chopped peanuts if I am using creamy peanut butter). Place on a cookie sheet lined with parchment or wax paper.
- Chill for 30 minutes and enjoy.
Notes
* I sometimes use chunky for the extra crunch.
