Crispy Peanut Butter Balls

INGREDIENTS:

1/2 cup butter, softened

2 cups creamy peanut butter

3 cups powdered sugar

3 cups crisped rice cereal

Chocolate candy coating, as needed

DIRECTIONS:

Line a baking sheet with wax paper.

In a large microwave-safe bowl, melt the peanut butter and butter in microwave for 1 minute.

Stir until smooth and microwave 20 seconds more, if needed.

Add cereal, followed by powdered sugar and gently stir until fully combined.

Using your hands, roll into 1-inch balls and place on prepared baking sheet. Freeze 15 minutes.

Meanwhile, melt the candy coating according to package directions.

Once balls are chilled, place each one on a fork and dip in chocolate until fully coated, letting excess chocolate run off. Place on baking sheet again chill until set. Enjoy!
