You will <i>seriously<\/i> be sick to your stomach if you eat the whole batch in one day (I mean it, a cup of peanut butter is a lot), but the first few are really good. My mom always made these for bake sales in elementary school, and they always sold out immediately. They&#8217;re really simple to make, yet hardly anyone has heard of them before, so they&#8217;re novel.<\/p>\n<p>Sadly, shortly after I graduated, the school really cracked down on peanut products due to allergies and what-not, so she wasn&#8217;t allowed to make any for my sister&#8217;s years there. Their loss. Recently I was talking to my mom about these, and how I would have died if I had to go through the school system again since PB&#038;J was the only thing I ate for 10+ years (and still one of only 2 or 3 things I bring to work). The Lewis Black stand-up sketch was mentioned &#8220;Hey, if your kid is so allergic that they can&#8217;t even have someone else eating it on the other side of the room&#8230; your kid&#8217;s not going to make it.&#8221;<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Yield: About 32 balls Ingredients: 1 cups peanut butter (pref. crunchy) 1\/4 cup butter or margarine 2 cups icing sugar 1.5 cups Rice Crispies 1 package of chocolate chips (or: several pure chocolate bars) Method: 1.
