Method
 

Step-by-Step Instructions
  1. In a large mixing bowl, combine creamy peanut butter, puffed rice cereal, chopped nuts, and fine coconut until well blended.
  2. If the mixture feels too loose, cover it with plastic wrap and refrigerate for about 10-15 minutes to firm it up.
  3. Scoop out small portions of the mixture and roll them into 1 inch balls, placing them on a parchment-lined baking sheet.
  4. Melt semi-sweet chocolate in a microwave-safe bowl in 30-second increments, stirring until smooth.
  5. Dip each peanut butter ball into the melted chocolate, using a fork to coat them fully, and let excess chocolate drip off.
  6. Return the coated balls to the baking sheet and refrigerate for about 10-15 minutes until chocolate is set.
