These bon-bons are like little crispy chocolate candy bars. Add a little bit of paraffin to your chocolate to make it shinier if you wish.
INGREDIENTS (for 1 servings):
- 2 cups peanut butter
- 3/4 cup butter
- 4 1/2 cups confectioners' sugar
- 3 cups crispy rice cereal
- 6 (1 ounce) squares semisweet chocolate, chopped
PREPARATION:
In a medium saucepan, melt together the peanut butter and butter, stirring occasionally until warm and smooth. In a large bowl, stir together the confectioners' sugar and rice cereal; pour the peanut butter mixture over the cereal mixture and use your hands to blend well. Roll tablespoonfuls of the mixture into balls and chill.
In the microwave or in a metal bowl over a pan of simmering water, melt chocolate chips, stirring frequently until smooth. Dip the peanut butter balls into the chocolate using a toothpick. Place onto waxed paper to set.
