- 1 cup powdered sugar sifted

How to make Peanut Butter balls
1. In a large mixing bowl mix peanut butter, unsalted butter, and powdered sugar on medium speed with a mixer until creamy.
2. Mix 2 cups of Rice Krispies into the peanut butter mixture until all ingredients are combined completely. Roll peanut butter mixture into balls and chill in the refrigerator for 30 minutes or more.
3. Place chocolate chips and shortening in a medium saucepan on the stove top on low heat, stir continuously until the shortening and chocolate melt. Once the chocolate melts, pour into a glass bowl.
Take a few of the peanut butter balls out of the refrigerator. Using a toothpick dip one peanut butter ball at a time into the chocolate and sprinkle with pecans immediately before the chocolate hardens.
Repeat until all the peanut butter balls are covered in chocolate then place them in the refrigerator until the chocolate hardens. When the chocolate peanut butter balls are done take out a few and enjoy!
Make sure to keep the chocolate snowballs in the refrigerator in an airtight container until needed.

Kim! You are a genius! I love that you "dressed up" my favorite rice krispy treats and turned them into truffles. They are going on my holiday cookie trays this year.
