No-Bake Candy

I love no-bake candy recipes for the holidays. They are great for getting kids involved in the kitchen. Chocolate and peanut butter is my absolute favorite flavor combination. These Rice Krispie Peanut Butter Balls are similar to Butterfinger Balls but they have a crispy texture.

Ingredients Needed

1/4 cup butter– I use salted butter but you can use unsalted.1 cup creamy peanut butter– you can use crunchy if it’s what you like.1 cup powdered sugar2 cups Rice Krispie CerealChocolate Candiquick– or chocolate melting wafers

Instead of using chocolate candiquick, you can use 2 cups of semi-sweet chocolate chips melted with 2 tablespoons of shortening.
