PEANUT BUTTER AND CHOCOLATE CHIP RICE KRISPIES BALLS
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.

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:

- If the mixture is too dry, add a little more honey or maple syrup.
