Crunchy Peanut Butter Balls

A holiday favorite ...that is good anytime at all! 
 I make hundreds during the holidays for family, friends and neighbors and no matter what other treats I make...these seem to be everyones favorite

You will need:

Rice cereal
Marshmallow Fluff
Peanut Butter (don't use bargain brand, it will not turn out right)
Almond Bark- Chocolate candy coating

  

Mix together Peanut Butter and Marshmallow creme until combined.  Add Rice cereal and mix until all the cereal is coated .  Roll mixture into 1 inch balls.  I use a small scoop but you can just use a teaspoon and then roll with your hands

 Chop up  the Almond bark and put in a microwave safe bowl. 

  Heat in the microwave 30 seconds at a time, stirring in between. Repeat until chocolate is smooth.

   

   

Note: be careful not to overheat or chocolate will scorch.  Be sure that no water gets into chocolate or it will become grainy.

  

Using a fork, dip the ball in the chocolate

Scrape any extra chocolate off on side of bowl

Then place on a baking sheet line with wax paper

The chocolate coating will harden fairly quickly.  Enjoy!

Crunchy Peanut Butter Balls

In a large bowl combine peanut butter and marshmallow creme.  Add rice crispies and mix
until completely coated.  Use small scoop or teaspoonful of mixture and roll into a 1 inch ball.
Melt half a package of the Almond Bark in the microwave, 30 seconds at a time, stirring after
each time.   Dip ball into the melted chocolate, using a fork, and remove while scraping on
side of bowl.  Place ball onto a cooking sheet lined with wax paper.
You can put the chocolate back into microwave for 10-20 seconds if it starts to harden
 in the bowl.  Chocolate will harden fairly quickly.
