Raise the bar on your Rice Krispie treat game with these little chocolate balls of deliciousness!

Ingredients

• 1/2 cup peanut butter
• 3 tablespoons soft butter
• 1 teaspoon vanilla
• 1 cup Rice Krispies
• 1/2 cup pecans, chopped fine
• 1 cup coconut, shredded (I used unsweetened)
• 1 package semi-sweet chocolate chips
• 1 square sweet chocolate

Preparation

Step 1

Mix everything together, refrigerate for a half hour or longer and then form into balls. Return to fridge and let chill at least an hour (longer would be best). Note: To make it easier to roll in chocolate, freeze for a minimum of 4 hours or overnight.

Melt the following together in a double –boiler: one package chocolate chips, one square sweet chocolate. Keep on low so that chocolate remains soft.

Drop balls into chocolate mixture one at a time using a fork to roll them so that the chocolate will cover. Let set on parchment paper in fridge. They freeze well.

Note: The balls can also refrigerated over night or may be frozen, and then dipped in chocolate.
