Ingredients:
3 cups Rice Krispies cereal
1 cup mini marshmallows
1 cup semi-sweet chocolate chips
3 tablespoons butter
1 teaspoon vanilla extract
Optional toppings: sprinkles, crushed nuts, or melted white chocolate for drizzling
Instructions:
Melt the Chocolate:
In a microwave-safe bowl, combine the chocolate chips and butter. Microwave in 30-second intervals, stirring in between, until melted and smooth.
Mix Ingredients:
Stir in the vanilla extract. Then, add the mini marshmallows and Rice Krispies cereal. Mix well until everything is evenly coated with thechocolate.
Shape the Balls:
Allow the mixture to cool slightly (but not too much). Grease your hands with a bit of butter or cooking spray, then take small portions of the mixture and roll them into balls about 1 inch in diameter.
Chill:
Place the balls on a baking sheet lined with parchment paper. Refrigerate for about 30 minutes to firm up.
Add Toppings (Optional):
If desired, drizzle with melted white chocolate or sprinkle with toppings of your choice.
Serve:
Once set, enjoy your Chocolate Rice Krispie Balls! Store leftovers in an airtight container.
These treats are great for parties, snacks, or just a sweet craving.
Enjoy!
