1 (18 ounce size) jar of peanut butter
2 cups Rice Krispies cereal
1 1/2 cups powdered sugar
1/4 teaspoon vanilla extract
1 cup chocolate chips
In a double boiler over low heat, melt chocolate and set aside. In a medium sized bowl, combine all other ingredients. Blend well until mixture forms a dough. Roll into 1-inch balls. Using a toothpick or fork, dip the balls into the chocolate until well coated. Place onto a cookie sheet lined with wax paper. Refrigerate for 30 minutes.

I received this recipe from a pastry chef I know. The easiest way to make the peanut butter balls before chocolate dipping is put the peanut butter mixture in the freezer until its good and cold then take it out and get a bowl of ice water when your hands
get sticky simply dip them in the ice water. GOOD LUCK AND HAPPY HOLIDAYS!!
My family loves these so much I make them every year, my brothers fight over who gets to take the leftovers home so
I just split them evenly between the two.

I agree that these were very tasty and my family loved them, however there has to be a better way! THey are so sticky and impossible to "roll" into a ball....

Would not make this again.
very hard to mix, use more confectionary sugar until dry enough to mold.
I also used a whole bag of chocolate chips.

I got about 75 balls from this recipe. They were a big hit with the family and friends.
