Directions:
Melt the peanut butter and butter together. (You can do it over low heat on the stove or in the microwave. I do mine 2 minutes in the microwave)
Mix together the powdered sugar and the rice krispies.
Mix the sugar and krispies with the melted peanut butter and butter. I just use a wooden spoon to mix them together.
Form into balls about 1 inch in size or whatever size you like.
Cover a baking sheet with wax paper and place peanut butter balls on the sheet and chill in the refrigerator for about an hour.
Melt the chocolate and shortening either on the stove or in the microwave. I do it in the microwave for about 2 1/2 minutes and stir well.
Dip peanut butter balls into chocolate and place back on cookie sheet. Keep chilled until firm or about an hour
