Ingredients

Filling

  • ½ cup peanut butter (smooth or crunchy)
  • 3 tbsp softened butter
  • 1 tsp vanilla extract
  • 1 cup Rice Krispies cereal
  • ½ cup chopped toasted pecans (optional)
  • 1 cup shredded coconut

Coating

  • 1 package (12 oz) chocolate chips (milk, semi-sweet, or dark)
  • 1 square sweet chocolate

Instructions

  1. Make the Filling:
    In a large bowl, mix peanut butter, butter, and vanilla until creamy.
    Stir in Rice Krispies, pecans, and coconut until evenly combined.
  2. Shape & Freeze:
    Roll mixture into 1-inch balls and place on a parchment-lined baking sheet.
    Freeze for 20 minutes to firm up.
  3. Melt the Chocolate:
    In a microwave (30-second intervals) or double boiler, melt chocolate chips with sweet chocolate, stirring until smooth.
  4. Dip & Coat:
    Dip each chilled ball into the melted chocolate, letting excess drip off.
    Place back on the baking sheet.
  5. Chill & Serve:
    Refrigerate for 1 hour, or until chocolate is fully set.
    Serve chilled or at room temperature.

Tips

  • Add 1 tsp coconut oil to melted chocolate for a silky coating.
  • Top with holiday sprinkles, crushed peppermint, or sea salt before the chocolate sets.
  • Store in an airtight container for up to 2 weeks in the fridge or 3 months in the freezer.
