Peanut Butter Balls
- 2 cups Creamy Peanut Butter
- 2 cups Powdered Sugar
- 1/2 cups Butter, Softened
- 3 cups Rice Krispies Cereal
- 12 ounces, weight Bag Of Semi-sweet Chocolate Chips
- Paraffin Wax
- Cream peanut butter, powdered sugar, and butter until smooth and creamy. Add cereal and stir with a wooden spoon until thoroughly combined. Using powdered sugar on your hands to prevent sticking, roll 1" balls of the peanut butter mixture and place them on a waxed-paper-lined baking sheet.
- Melt chocolate chips with paraffin wax slivers in a double boiler or heat-proof bowl over simmering water. (Note: the paraffin wax may seem unusual, but that's how these cookies have always been made, so I'm not gonna mess with perfection here. I've included a photo in my blog post so you can get an idea of how much to add.) Dip balls in melted chocolate to cover. Return to the waxed paper. Decorate with sprinkles, if desired.
- Place peanut butter balls in the refrigerator to set. This can be kept for quite some time in the freezer.
