Crunchy Peanut Butter Balls

1. 1

   In a large bowl, combine the peanut butter and marshmallow creme; add in the cereal and stir until cereal is well coated.

2. 2

   In a small microwave-safe bowl, combine the chocolate chips with the shortening. Microwave, uncovered, for 1 to 2 minutes or until chips are melted. Stir until smooth.

3. 3

   Using your hands, form the cereal mixture into 1-inch balls. Dip into the chocolate so the ball is coated all the way around. This will be messy, but just have fun.

4. 4

   Place balls on waxed paper on a baking sheet. Refrigerate until set.

5. 5

   Prep time is a guesstimate. It depends on how fast you make the balls.
