  • 4 cups crisp rice cereal
  • 24 ounces chocolate
  • Cooking Tools
  • electric mixer (I love our KitchenAid Mixer)

Instructions
  1. Cream together the peanut butter, unsalted butter and confectionary sugar.
  2. Add the crisp rice cereal and mix until combined.
  3. Form into small balls and place on cookie sheets lined with wax paper or tinfoil.
  4. Chop the chocolate into small pieces.
  5. Melt about ⅔ of the chocolate pieces in a microwave-safe bowl for 1 minute.
  6. If not melted microwave for another 30 seconds and stir.
  7. Add the rest of the chocolate pieces and stir until melted.
  8. Place a ball into the melted chocolate.
  9. Coat the ball with chocolate using two spoons to transfer it from one spoon to the next.
  10. Place each chocolate ball on a piece of tinfoil or wax paper to harden. This will take a couple of hours.
