Ingredients:

Serving

18 oz jar creamy peanut butter
1 stick butter melted
1 lb powdered sugar
1-1/4 cups crispy rice cereal
12 oz package semi sweet chocolate chips
6 oz package semi sweet chocolate chips
2 tbsp shortening

Directions:

Put peanut butter in large bowl and add butter and sugar alternately in small amounts at a time.
Mix well until all sugar disappears then add cereal and continue mixing.
Form into balls the size of walnuts.
Melt morsels and shortening in a double boiler then remove from heat.
Leave water on the stove at medium temperature but do not let water boil.
Dip balls into chocolate mixture with a large spoon.
Lift out with two forks rocking back and forth to remove excess chocolate.
When chocolate gets too thick return to hot water until soft enough to dip again.
