Categories     Candy     Chocolate

Yield 16 balls

Number Of Ingredients 6

2 (1.4 ounce) chocolate-covered toffee candy bars (Skor or Heath)
2 cups Rice Krispies
1/2 cup chunky peanut butter
16 regular-size marshmallows
1/2 cup mini semisweet chocolate chips
Canola oil

Steps:

  • Leaving candy bars in wrappers, use a rolling pin to pound and crush bars into small pieces. Place Rice Krispies in a large bowl and set aside. Place peanut butter in a medium-size microwave-safe bowl; microwave on high until hot, about 45 seconds. Add marshmallows and microwave until sotened, about 30 minutes. Working quickly, stir to combine mixture with Rice Krispies. Stir until evenly coated. Add crushed candy bars and chocolate chips. Stir until combined. Coat your hands with oil and shape mixture into spheres the size of golf balls, making 16 treats. The balls will keep up to one week at room temperature.

Tips:

  • Choose high-quality chocolate. This will make a big difference in the flavor of your peanut butter balls. Look for chocolate that is at least 70% cacao.
  • Use creamy peanut butter. This will make your peanut butter balls smooth and creamy. Avoid using natural peanut butter, as it will make your peanut butter balls too dry.
  • Chill the peanut butter mixture before rolling it into balls. This will help the peanut butter balls hold their shape.
  • Roll the peanut butter balls in cocoa powder or chopped nuts. This will add a nice flavor and texture to the peanut butter balls.
  • Store the peanut butter balls in the refrigerator or freezer. Peanut butter balls can be stored in the refrigerator for up to 2 weeks or in the freezer for up to 2 months.

Conclusion:

Peanut butter and chocolate balls are a delicious and easy-to-make treat that are perfect for any occasion. They are also a great way to use up leftover peanut butter. These peanut butter balls are sure to be a hit with your friends and family. Give them a try today!
