Ingredients

  • 1 cup milk chocolate chips
  • 2 tablespoons water
  • 1 cup creamy or crunchy peanut butter
  • 1/2 cup powdered sugar
  • 1/2 cup light corn syrup
  • 2 cups Cheerios™ cereal

Directions

  • 1
    Line a cookie sheet with parchment or waxed paper. In 1-quart saucepan, mix chocolate chips and water. Heat over medium heat, stirring constantly, until the mixture is smooth. Cool the chocolate while preparing the candies.
  • 2
    In medium bowl, mix peanut butter, powdered sugar and corn syrup until well blended. Stir in the cereal until evenly coated.
  • 3
    Lightly spray your hands with cooking spray. For each candy, roll 1 tablespoon of the mixture into a 1 1/2-inch ball. Place the balls on the cookie sheet and press them slightly so the bottoms of the balls are flat (this stops them from rolling off the cookie sheet).
  • 4
    Spoon about 1 teaspoon of the cooled chocolate onto each ball. Refrigerate until firm, about 30 minutes. Store the candies in a covered container in the refrigerator.

Expert Tips

  • tip 1
    To keep the candy mixture from sticking to your spoon when you spoon it out to make a ball, spray your spoon with cooking spray.
