Ingredients

  • 1 1/2 cups Rice Krispies cereal
  • 1 cup creamy peanut butter
  • 2 tbsp butter softened
  • 1 cup powdered sugar
  • 1 cup semi-sweet chocolate chips
  • 1 1/4 cups butterscotch chips
  • 1/2 tbsp vegetable oil

Instructions

  • In a medium mixing bowl, combine Rice Krispies, peanut butter, softened butter, and powdered sugar. The mixture will be thick so you may need to mix with your hands.
  • Line a baking pan with parchment paper or a silicone baking mat, then roll the mixture into balls roughly 1 inch in size, placing them on your prepared pan as you go. Transfer to the freezer to chill for 30 minutes.
  • In a microwave safe bowl, combine chocolate chips and 1 cup butterscotch chips then microwave in 30 second intervals, stirring in between, until melted and smooth.
  • Working one by one, coat each truffle in the melted chocolate, let any excess chocolate drip off, then return to the baking sheet.
  • Melt the remaining butterscotch chips and vegetable oil, then transfer to a ziploc bag, cut off one end, and drizzle the butterscotch chocolate over the truffles.
  • Pop in the fridge or freezer for 30 minutes to set the chocolate drizzle. Once set, carefully break off the excess candy-coating pieces around each truffle before enjoying!
