Rice Krispie Almond Butter Balls

Rice Krispie Almond Butter Balls only have five ingredients and no baking. The chocolate is melted to cover the balls – so quick and easy.

 
I got to have a fun day today. It was time to make something sweet for our house and I was determined to make it a simple and chocolaty treat. Success!

Almond Butter Balls covered in creamy smooth chocolate.

Do you know I never had a Rice Krispie Treat until about 5 years ago. Forgive me if I say they were just okay. I loved the crunch but not so much the marshmallow.

Well, this recipe has now become my Rice Krispie Treat. To be vegan you can not use Kellogg’s but there are Organic Rice Crispies cereals and Natural Brown Rice Crisp cereals at many of the grocery stores.

There are only five ingredients and no baking for these Rice Krispie Almond Butter Balls. And the chocolate is only for the coating. Very easy to make so you might want to get started on them right now. It’ll make your day.
