With clean hands, take small portions of the mixture and roll them into bite-sized balls. If you want uniform sizes, you can use a small cookie scoop to ensure they are all the same size.
Melt the Chocolate:
Place the milk chocolate chips (or dark chocolate) in a microwave-safe bowl and heat them in 20-30 second intervals, stirring each time until the chocolate is smooth and melted.
Coat the Rice Krispie Balls:
Dip each Rice Krispie ball into the melted chocolate, ensuring it’s fully coated. You can use a fork to lift them out, letting any excess chocolate drip off.
Let the Chocolate Set:
Place the coated balls on a parchment-lined tray and let them cool for about 15-20 minutes, allowing the chocolate to harden. If you’re in a rush, you can refrigerate them for a faster set.
Optional Finish:
For an extra touch, dust the finished balls with a pinch of powdered sugar or sprinkle some sea salt over them to enhance the flavor contrast.
Serve and Enjoy!
Once the chocolate has set, your Chocolate Rice Krispie Balls are ready to serve! Store them in an airtight container for up to a week (if they last that long!).
