Ingredients

• 1 cup Peanut butter
• 0.5 cup Honey
• 1 teaspoon Vanilla extract
• 3 cups Rice Krispies cereal
• 0.5 cup Mini chocolate chips
• 1 tablespoon Butter or non-stick spray (for hands)

Directions

Step 1

In a microwave-safe bowl, combine the peanut butter and honey.

Step 2

Microwave on high for 20-30 seconds, or until the mixture is warm and easy to stir. Alternatively, you can heat it on the stovetop over low heat.

Step 3

Stir in the vanilla extract until fully incorporated.

Step 4

Pour the Rice Krispies cereal into the peanut butter mixture. Gently mix until the cereal is evenly coated.

Step 5

Allow the mixture to cool slightly before adding the mini chocolate chips. Stir gently to distribute the chips without melting them.

Step 6

Lightly grease your hands with butter or non-stick spray to prevent sticking.

Step 7

Scoop about 1 tablespoon of the mixture and roll it into a ball using your hands. Repeat with the remaining mixture.

Step 8

Place the Rice Krispies balls on a parchment-lined baking sheet or tray.

Step 9

Refrigerate the balls for 20-30 minutes to firm up before serving.

Step 10

Store the Peanut Butter and Chocolate Chip Rice Krispies Balls in an airtight container in the refrigerator for up to 1 week.
