Perfect treat for anyone who adores chocolate and peanut butter! These are easy to make, and when all dipped and prettied up, they look so impressive and elegant. These would make a very nice treat to give to someone special...or just keep all for yourself! Reviewed for February Beverage Tag '08. -
Tasty little tidbits with the perfect amount of chocolate and peanut butter, with the added surprise of a crunch! These are pretty quick and easy, and make it worth your while to make! Thanks for a great recipe! -
These are super tasty and easy to make! I used a mixture of corn flakes crushed and rice kripies since I did not have a lot of rice krispies on hand. Perfect sweet treat when you dont feel like spending a lot of time on a dessert. -
