Chocolate Crispy Snack Balls (T&T)by BettyBoop 10/26/2001 12:37 pm These are great little snacks to have around the house for when you have an urge for something but don't know what. 1 (18 ounce) jar peanut butter, creamy or chunky 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 toothpick 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 30 minutes and enjoy. I sometimes add finely chopped dates or raisins. |
