CRUNCHY PEANUT BUTTER BALLS
This is a recipe I got from a neighbor many years ago. I make these sweet and crunchy treats at Christmas and then again for Easter. I've also made these tasty candies using Cocoa Krispies (instead of Rice Krispies) and smooth peanut butter instead of crunchy. Another traditional family favorite!

Steps:
- 1. In a large bowl, combine the butter, peanut butter, confectioner's sugar and rice krispies.
- 2. Mix well with hands until well combined. Chill in refrigerator for 1 hour.
- 3. Line a large cookie sheet with parchment paper. Form chilled peanut butter mixture into 1 1/2" balls and place on prepared cookie sheet. Refrigerate for 35-40 minutes.
- 4. When ready to dip peanut butter balls, melt chocolate in microwave, being very careful not to burn.
- 5. Dip each egg into melted chocolate and place back onto prepared cookie sheet, drizzling extra chocolate over top to hide and holes left from dipping.
- 6. Place in refrigerator for at least 1 hour to "set", then place into an airtight container with waxed paper between the layers.
- 7. If I've used all of the melted chocolate and I have some peanut butter balls left, I usually just wrap them in a square of waxed paper. Just roll them in the waxed paper and twist each end shut.
- 8. Makes 25-30 candies, chocolate dipper and/OR wrapped.
Tips for Making Crunchy Peanut Butter Balls:
- Use creamy peanut butter for a smoother texture or crunchy peanut butter for a more textured result.
- Chill the peanut butter mixture for at least 30 minutes before rolling it into balls. This will make it easier to handle and less likely to stick to your hands.
- If the mixture is too dry, add a little milk or cream until it reaches the desired consistency.
- If the mixture is too wet, add a little more peanut butter or powdered sugar until it reaches the desired consistency.
- Roll the balls in chopped nuts, chocolate chips, or other desired toppings before chilling them.
- Store the peanut butter balls in an airtight container in the refrigerator for up to 2 weeks.
