Rice Krispie Chocolate Peanut Butter Truffle

I love Rice Krispie Marshmallow treats. This has some of my favorite  ingredients literally rolled into a ball. Be fun to make with kids.

Rice Krispie Chocolate Peanut Butter Truffle

Makes about 50

1 stick butter
2 cups (or one 18-ounce jar) creamy peanut butter
3 cups Rice Krispies cereal
1 pound (about 3 1/2 cups) powdered sugar, sifted
two 12-ounce packages semisweet chocolate morsels

In a saucepan, melt butter and peanut butter. In a large bowl, combine Rice Krispies and powdered sugar. Pour melted peanut-butter mixture over cereal mixture, using your hands to blend. When completely combined, form into small balls. Chill on cookie sheets covered with wax paper (or parchment paper) until firm.
Melt chocolate morsels in the top of a double boiler. Dip balls, one at a time, into melted chocolate until fully coated. Place on wax paper until set. Store in refrigerator or freezer.
