Recipe Tips

To make sure the chocolate doesn’t seize up when melting, make sure all of your equipment is dry and free of water. You can also add a teaspoon of vegetable oil to the chocolate to help it melt smoothly. If you want to make sure the rice krispie balls are even in size, use a cookie scoop to form them. If you want to add some extra flavor, you can add a teaspoon of cinnamon to the mixture. Enjoy these delicious chocolate covered rice krispie balls!
