I gave these out for Christmas a couple years ago and everybody loved them. I ended up making several batches over the course of the holidays.

I made these for the first time yesterday. They are a HUGE hit in my house! It was a great thing to make with the kids...they were able to help with everything! I did add only 3 cups of confectioners' sugar like someone suggested. I had no problems with the rice crispies getting soggy. A day later and they are still crunchy! They are the one ingredient that has everyone ask "what is that". Also, I had no problems with the peanut butter breaking up while rolling into balls. I did freeze them for about 20 minutes before dipping and after. To make them a little prettier, I melted some peanut butter after I dipped them in chocolate and drizzled it over the top of them. Soooo good!

These are a family favorite! I first made them 2 years ago and am always asked to make them again! One of my all-time favorite cookies!

Wow, sorry to everyone that enjoyed these. I made them for the first time this year and NO ONE liked them. In fact, I ended up discarding them alltogether. They were soooooo sweet...tasted like all powdered sugar.

This recipe would probably not suffer if the sugar would be halved. Delicious but a lot of people complained about it being far too sweet.

love this recipe! after making it a dozen times over the years, here's the process i use. technique tips: 1.] mix with hands as previous review suggests [that reviewer was me, i had to make a new account]...2.] use a cookie scoop to scoop balls onto a wax paper lined baking sheet and freeze for a couple hours....3.] using your hands, dip the bottoms only into the chocolate so that they're about 1/2 covered and place back on lined cookie sheet....4.] either use a fork to drizzle remaining chocolate over the tops, or pour it into a bag an snip off a tiny bit of the corner and drizzle that way.

Entire family loved these! Had a little problem dipping them, the chocolate never got runny enough and I was afraid of burning it, so that part got a little messy...but they tasted awesome!

Taste is very good, nice balance between the chocolate and peanut butter. I used a medium ice cream scoop and should have used my small one. Pretty easy to make.

I've made these two years in a row for Christmas, and they are ALWAYS a huge hit. I'm about to make another batch for a NYE party as well! My 6 year old nephew had a blast helping me squish all the ingredients together. So much fun! I'm going to try to put the peanut butter balls on a skewer and pour the chocolate over them rather than dip each one individually. Hope it works!
