Ingredients:

  • 1 cup creamy peanut butter

  • 1/2 cup unsalted butter

  • 1 tsp vanilla extract

  • 2 cups powdered sugar

  • 3 cups Rice Krispies cereal

  • 2 cups semi-sweet chocolate chips

  • 1 tbsp coconut oil or shortening (optional, for smoother coating)

  • Instructions:

    1. Melt & Mix:
      In a saucepan over low heat, melt the peanut butter and butter together. Stir in the vanilla extract.

    2. Combine:
      Remove from heat and mix in the powdered sugar until smooth. Gently fold in the Rice Krispies cereal until fully combined.

    3. Shape Balls:
      Roll mixture into small balls (about 1 inch). Place them on a parchment-lined tray and refrigerate for 20–30 minutes until firm.

    4. Melt Chocolate:
      In a microwave-safe bowl, melt the chocolate chips with coconut oil (if using) in 30-second intervals, stirring in between until smooth.

    5. Dip & Chill:
      Dip each ball into the melted chocolate using a fork or toothpick. Let excess drip off, then place back on parchment paper. Refrigerate until chocolate is set.

      Tips:

      • Use crunchy peanut butter for added texture.

      • Drizzle with white chocolate for a decorative finish.

      • Store in an airtight container in the fridge for up to 1 week
