Peanut Butter Balls

 THANKS ANNE!



Peanut Butter Balls

Ingredients for the Peanut Butter Balls:

  • 1 cup icing sugar
  • 1 cup peanut butter
  • 1/2 cup sweetened shredded coconut
  • 1/3 cup butter, melted
  • 4 cups Rice Krispies cereal

Ingredients for the Icing:

  • 3 cups semi-sweet chocolate chips
  • 1/4 cup hot water
  • 1/4 cup butter

Directions:

  1. Line a baking sheet with waxed paper. In a large bowl, mix icing sugar, peanut butter, coconut, and 1/3 cup melted butter together until well blended. Gently fold in Kellogg's Rice Krispies cereal until well coated. Form into 1-inch balls. To make rolling the balls easier, use lightly dampened hands. Refrigerate on the baking sheet for 30 minutes.

  2. To make the chocolate dip: In a medium saucepan over low heat, melt chocolate chips, remaining butter, and water together. If the mixture is a bit thick for dipping, add 1 to 2 tablespoons more hot water.

  3. Using two forks, drop a couple of peanut butter balls into the chocolate mixture. Roll the balls around in the chocolate mixture to coat them in chocolate. Chill on the waxed paper-lined baking sheet until the chocolate is set.
